It's up to ME!

Fearless

That's what I want to be

embrace the sun

and all its energy

 

No fear

No doubt

pursuing my passion

chasing my dreams

 

Too bad other people don't understand

Don't understand

I just want them to hold my hand

Maybe a little nudge every once in awhile

but I don't need you

to tear me down

I don't need to taste your fear

Who are you to tell me

what I hear

Who are you

to feel for me

who are you

to be afraid of my hopes and dreams

 

You're not me

I'm not you

Do not disturb

Beware of Dog

Caution

Be back soon

STOP

HELP WANTED

are all my signs

Why not just let me be

If I fall

I'll get up

If I don't

Then I don't

But it's up to me

you see

It's Up To ME!

Wonderful. I need this right now. And I will read it everyday. It gives me strength it has reminded me that I can simply be me, without the need to take anyone's permission. Thank you so much.

Okay, I can feel the emotion in this :) It's in the beat. Like this rising pride trying to show them who's boss. Forceful. But I like it. I think the last stanza is my favorite :)

this is great, upbeat

[Clarisse Nanoit]

This is cool. I like it. Very interesting and a good comment on balancing our need for other people and our need to do things for ourselves. I like, I like.
