You Decide

When you look at the present
What do you see
Is it the image you built 
You portrayed it to be

When you look at your past
What do you feel
Is it an uplifting beat 
Or is it a pain too real

When you look at your future 
What do you want
Is it a positive image 
Or will you let your past haunt

Now look at yourself
Where do you stand
Will you let yourself fail
Or be your biggest fan
