I realized something really important today

The girl that I was, is weak and feels betrayed

"Why did all of this happen to her?" I would always say

Was it the people close to her, that she got to be this way?

 

But it's bigger than that, as I finally realized

It's not her, it's "Jazmine" that keeps feeling terrorized 

 

It is her who keeps feeling like the world is upside down

It is her that keeps believing that no one will stick around

It is her that still doesn't want to be found

Inside a closed off world that she wants to shut out.

 

So instead of being "Jazmine," I will take all that away

Instead I'll choose to take up my middle name

 

Because "Kalias" is special, strong, and will prevail

Because "Kalias" will allow her boat to set sail

 

Because she has observed what mistakes "Jazmine" made

She will not do the same for she is her own mate

She will not let those step on her feet

She will not let them abuse what she knows is unique

And because no one else can just take her name

It is her own, just like her life, who is not a shame

Who does not carry the weight of the world on her shoulders

Instead she'll have the strength to throw them like boulders

She'll walk and flaunt without a care

She's gonna take every chance without being fair

And best of all she has her whole life ahead

While "Jazmine" will stay in the past as if she were dead

"Kalias" is reborn with a new feat in mind

She's gonna be the greatest person on her absolute grind.
