My Parents Taught Me To Be
My parents brought me up to be
Self-aware,
Self-assured,
Self-motivated,
So I could live with myself,
And choose friends who make me smile.
They did not bring me up to be
Self-centred,
Self-serving,
Self-promoting
So I could live in self denial,
And choose friends that are vile.
