Dont be afraid to be yourself.







-Everyone says it.


[2x] You dont gotta do a damn thing in life.....
Unless its your choice......
You dont gotta speak like no one else.....
Just speak with your voice......
Dont be afraid to be yourself.....
Around the other girls and boys.....
We all the same......
All the same.....


I understand that you feel so outta place,
When you go and sit with others,
Some walk away,
Same thing happened with ya brother,
Its okay i feel your pain,
Id walk around the halls,
And hear what they gotta say,
But we cant judge them all,
We dont know what they are going through,
They must feel low cuz they need a class full of kids to make them feel cool,
I know its been a while since i been in school,
But hey, summer vacation is coming soon,
And i got plans for me and you,
For now just ignore everyone else,
A lot of people now days only care for themselves,
I see your face,
when you see me,
You always say hi,
I see your face,
When im leaving,
You hate to say bye,
But good bye aint forever,
ill always be around,
You should know you can always talk to me even if you aint feeling down,
I know you hate reading,
and i know you read just fine,
But the words get jumbled up,
From the tears in your eye,
I understand you got a lot on your mind,
We only human beings,
Theres only so much we can take,
We should learn to express our feelings,
Cuz if we dont we can go insane,
You my little brother and you need to know that expressing ya self is okay,

I remember when me and Rich were kids,
We felt like crap,
And lacked confidence,
We’d play with toys,
But wouldnt let you,
But we was just boys,
And we’d forget too,
We werent role models,
I was always focused on what i had to do,
Because back then i had problems,
Felt like i had something to prove,
I was always unsure,
And very insecure,
I doubted myself a lot,
Didnt know if i was ever loved or not,
And yo rich, my brotha,
Im sorry we always fought,
we was pushed against each other with no reason to stop,
But Raymie i see why you love to play games,
You aint trynna think,
To much on ya brain,
Its become the way you wanna live,
And i know you hate change,
But guess what,
So did I when I was your age,
But hey,
We all getten older,
Maybe its time to move on,
I promise it gets easier as the years come along,
Just stay in school and remember to eat ya greens,
You already smart and you will grow strong,
Just dont pay attention to the negativity,
People will be people,
You will learn that some day,
Some are good and some are evil,
Depends on how they were raised,
But we all got feelings,
And it dont hurt to pray,
No one should be considered most high or above,
We got a heart and a brain,
We all made of  flesh and blood,
Lil bro we all the same,

This is a song i plan to record in the near future. This song is for my little brother Raymie. He's been through a lot at such a young age. Dealing with parents divorce and kids at school. Me being his older brother, I feel I shouldve been around more for him.So in a way this song is a promise that ill be there for him and be a good role model for him to look up too. Let me know what ya'l think.
