Stand Up For Yourself!

Copyright @ 2004 Brian D Roberts

So Many People Talk Down To You;
Well I'm Here To Tell You; You Need To Choose!
Enough Is Enough, and You Know It's True;
You Must Have More Then faith In What You Do!

You Are What You Are, No Matter The Charm;
For I Shall Know You From Afar That You Are A Star!
Know This! No Cowards Do I See Standing There!
Stand Up For Yourself Before It's Too Late;
Or They Shall Have You Eating Off Their Plate!

You Be Not A Slave, Nor Beast Of Burden;
Yet You Allow Yourself To Be So Driven!
The Only Master I Have, Lives In Heaven;
I Know He Would Ask, It's Not A Given!

Can You Feel With Your Heart;
Or Touch With Your Hand?
Can You Not Make Things Grow From Upon The Land?
Are You Not Special; A Blessing From God?
Were You Not Born To Sing Sweet Song?

God Had No Plans, That You Should So Stand;
So Slumped, So Dumped, A Lifeless Chunk!
You Must Decide For Yourself, This Is So True;
But In Doing So, Please Do Not Loose!

Wouldn't It Be Grand To Make A Great Stand;
To Give Forth An Efforts Which Make Your Own Plans?
Believe In Yourself, Do not Be So Bland;
For You Are A Person, Not Just A Hand!

If You Choose So Wrong, You'll Hear A Dong;
Your Self Esteem Has Just Gone Wrong!
It's Flushed Down The Toilet, and You'll Not
Enjoy It;
For This Is Just Wrong, Cant You See That My Friend?

So I Beg Of You Please, Don't Submit To Such Sleaze;
Give Yourself Rights To Stand In The Lights!
For Your More Important Then Any May Think;
Your Innermost Beauty The Mold That You Make!

Who Are You, What Are You, Are You Still Fake?
Or Have You Done What Is Right, and Put Up A Fight?

It Can Only Be Said For You, That You've Stood There, and Bruised;
Taken The Brunt Of All The Bad Stunts!
For I Believe In You, From Beginning To End;
You Are That Beauty I Call My Friend!

So Special, So Great, and It Never Too Late;
To Tell Those Who Hate, Go Jump In A Lake!
Then Pick Up Your Feet, and Walk To That Door;
Never Again Shall You Lay On Their Floor!

You Are Who You Are, and Now Your My Friend;
More Special To Me, So I Shall Defend!
You've Broken The Chains, Let Loose From The Strain;
Allowed Yourself Courage To Face This Worlds Fury!

Now I'm Proud Of You, There Is Not Much More;
For Now You've Taken The Steps Which Let You Live More!
I'll Never Have To Stand Here Waiting To Far To View Your Star!
