Don't allow someone else to determine your worth,
Don't let what they say get to you, words shouldn't hurt.
You're important and have every right to feel so,
If others don't believe in you, it's okay to let them go.
People come and go like leaves scattered by the winds,
Never give someone the power to wipe away your grin.
You'd be surprised by what you could do if you give yourself a chance,
Tell yourself I can and free yourself of the I can'ts.
You can love others, just don't forget to also love yourself,
People will talk whether you're poor or have wealth.
So do what makes you happy and take care of your mind,
Everything else will come together in due time...
