Walk tall with a regal bearing
let them talk, be beyond caring
they don't know, they can't see
always so negative or degrading.

Wear a smile like it's your crown
don't let fools bring you down
rise above their petty jealousies
spread positivity all over town.

Rest assured others will see you
the good in a heart that's true
one day opportunity will come
you'll be ready to get up and do.

For you have the soul of a writer
you're an artist, a crowd delighter
far more than what they can see
burn their scorn away, fire lighter.
