Maybe (Motivational Speech) [Shoutout to My Haters]

They said i changed...
Maybe... They were just jealous because they didn't change
Maybe... They were ASHAMED because they didn't change
Maybe... they were DISAPPOINTED they remained the same.

Yeah i changed.
Like anyone with ambition remains the same!
Yeah i changed
i changed everything but my name.
I wasn't born a miracle to be average
i have no desire to fit in
no desire to conform to anyones wishes
but it have every desire to improve myself
every day, every hour every minute.

They will say you didn't make time for them
Maybe they weren't worth your time
They laughed at my dreams & goals
Maybe... They were embarrassed because they didn't have any
Maybe their dreams were nightmares
Maybe their lives were a horror story.

They said i was arrogant
Maybe... They just hated my ambition
Maybe... They were to ashamed they had none themselves
Maybe... i remind them of their weakness

They said i wouldn't make it to the top
Listen, They said i wouldn't make it full stop.
They said i would fail, i would fall
That no one would believe in me, they gave me so many reasons.
But they forgot to ask about my desire.
They never asked if i was willing to sacrifice
They never asked if i would do whatever it takes

Maybe if they did they would have kept quiet
Maybe... they wanted to ensure they had someone to sit with
At the bottom of the mountain
You know, with the majority of people that didn't put in the work
Who didn't have the courage
The drive, the will, the passion
To fight for their dreams, to sacrifice, or even to conquer

Maybe they were afraid... because they didn't have what it takes
What it takes to keep up with my drive.
To go toe to toe with my passion

They will say you never make the time for them
Maybe you only make time for the people that are worth your time.
Maybe there is a lack of those people
Maybe they are not those people

Someone once told me:
It is better to be hated for what you are then to be loved for what you are not.
It is better to walk alone and be successful, then to walk with those who wander aimlessly through life and end up in the middle of no-where

but it's ok
because when my circle got smaller my drive got bigger
when my circle got smaller: my vision got larger
when my circle got smaller: my circle got stronger.

The proof is always in the pudding
You can't fake results!
i move on without them
i know i am stronger!
i know i am better!
i know i am greater!

without them it is a blessing
without them i keep on growing
moving forward
i'm connastntly on the move without them

you are not a puddle
don't let them walk all over you

you are not a sliding door
they can not look right through you

you are not a doormat
don't let them wipe their dirt on your face

you are not below them
don't let them look down on you

stand tall
walk strong
hold your own

there is no one above or below you
there is no one superior or inferior to you

you must always hungry
but don't ever lose your passion or your compassion

you have enormous drive
but don't lose your humility

put yourself in their shoes
but don't live in them

live your life
let them live theirs

go after your dreams
let them decide their own fate ...

You said i would never make it in life
You said I would fail
You said I would humiliate myself
I didn't have it in me
I was no good
I wouldn't succeed
You said I was weak
You said I wasn't strong

I guess they didn't know what i knew
That i would make it
Maybe not immediately, but absolutely and definitely

The difference between winning or losing
The difference between those that do, and those that don't make it in life
It isn't about talent
It isn't about any type of magical formula

The difference is character
It is your human spirit

And if you're going to make it in this world
Living out your dreams or living out your nightmares
It is completely up to what you do.
It all comes down to you
