I Love Myself
By Fred
* This poem is to JS whom I took into my home as a friend and yet he still betrayed me. He said everyone who wasn't like him was to be ridiculed. Since I wore Adidas and not Hilfiger, he ridiculed me.I'm not like you and I don't wanna beSo I don't understand why you talk about me.So I talk about what you don't wanna hearWell nobody asked you to lend and ear.I don't care about pleasing anyone elseYou know why? Because I love myself.So you want to talk about my shoesWell listen up, I've got some news.What is on my feet doesn't make me who I amSee I am defined according to God's perfect plan.It doesn't matter to me the perception of anyone elseBut I'll tell you what, I really love myself.I hope you've learned to leave well enough aloneEven God said 'Let him without sin cast the first stone.'Look at your own shortcomings before you look at mineBecause for every one I have, you might have nineI don't care how I appear to everyone else, The important thing is that I love myself.So my clothes aren't Hilfiger or PoloI love what I wear because I do it soloIt doesn't take anyone special to follow the crowdBut I am who I want to be and for that I am proud.See God created me to be special from the startAnd I love myself with all my heart.I love me, I love me, I love meYou can't take that away everI love me, I love me, I love meAnd my self love will fade neverYes I love me, I'm great and to myself trueI love me, and I ain't gotta be like you Written September 27th, 2001 © on Sep 27 2001 01:39 PM PST 0 • 12
