I don't know who I want to become when I'm older
That was me through every school shift and life grade I had
I don't know who I want to become when I'm older.
That was me through every school shift and life grade I had.
In middle school:
- I don't want to be a doctor, my mom already is
In high school:
I don't want to be a teacher, all my teachers are bad
In uni:
I don't want to be a software engineer, It's boring and lonely
Post-uni:
I don't want to work as an employee, I'm not an order taker
I don't want to be like everybody else, I am unique (yeah, right?)
Truth is... I was insecure.
I was insecure that society would reject me, But I rejected myself instead.
I was insecure about what my mom would say, But what do I have to say?
I was insecure about what my small circle would think, But never learned to think on my own
I was insecure about how others would feel, but never about how I'd feel.
But what was I so unsecured about?
Others,
Judgments? Only God can judge me
Expectations? Are none of my business
Traditional pathway? I am in the way of my path
View of the world? I control the narrative, I view the world through the story that I shape
It's a process of un*learning whom they told me to be and learning who I am.
I believe in myself and so should you.
Hold my hand,
I am not doing this alone,
I am taking you with me.
See you on the other side of destiny ~
