You Are You

Krittika Biswas 2006 (West Bengal)



​​Don't look yourself through their eyes
The things they tell you are nothing but lies
You're good, you're okay
Why then do you let their opinions lead you astray?

In this world, people will hurt you
They will break you
But don't let anything get you down
You're art,the bearer of your crown

I want you to say it today
Say it to yourself, say it everyday
Nothing can hurt me now, nothing can get me  
I'm untamed, I'm free
I'm the ocean in a drop... I'm the master of my sea

There will be times when things seem uncertain
There are moments,when all you feel is pain
I know it's hard to live through
But know at the end of the day
You're more than enough.
You will make it anyway

So you see
How strong you are
Keep fighting for whats right
Just like a soldier fighting a war
Just remember one thing,no matter going through whatever you are
You are unique, They'll never know
What you are
A flame so bright, The winner of all the life's fights
You are unique
You are You...
Stronger than the strong
Mightier than the fiercest of knights
