My life or your life?
What makes us choose are way to live?
Are parents, friends or Idols?
Well I pick me!
No one is perfect
Everyone makes mistakes
Like you and me.
Just that I prefer to…
Take the blame and praise only directed on me.
Do you think that is selfish or stupid?
No it dose not
For I make myself…
Happy and don’t need to depend on anyone to do it for me.
That dose not makes me a rebel…
But a leader!
Not a hot-shot
But a responsible person
Though most of all…
I like myself for who I am!
Can you say that about yourself?
If not why not start now?
It may take tons of work
But
We can do it
After all we are the future of our country
Are you ready to make a difference?
