Note to Self

Why are you always judging you
For doing things that humans do?
An expert, now, at finding proof
That your flaws are who you are
Sure, you can take a fucking hint-
But can you take a compliment?
Perhaps the simple truth is that you're scared
But you're trying really hard

Relax... unwind
Sweet child, you're not running out of time
There's no way you could ever make up for the years
That you spent forgetting how to shine
But remember that the timeline is a lie

So be whoever you must be, my love, to feel like who you are
You are your own, you are your own, you are your own

You didn't lose track of the wonders of your mind
They were stolen, they were hidden
Where they never thought you'd find them
Yet, you did- now don't you let them out of your sight

And be whoever you must be, my love, to feel like who you are
You are your own, you are your own, you are your own

Why are you always so concerned with how you'll land back on your feet
When those feet were never meant to touch the ground?
Always the observer, meant to see a bigger picture
But ain't it peaceful with your head up in these clouds?
Be whoever you must be, my love, to feel like who you are
You are your own, you are your own, you are your own
You've only ever been divine
And you owe it to yourself, and to the world
To maybe try and stick around
