The way I wanna be

Location

Every day, I wake up,

thinking, what does this day hold for me.

thinking, what will people think of me?

will they like my hair?

my shoes, my shirt, pants, watch, belt?

all these questions buzz in my head

buzzing, buzzing, buzzing

when I really shouldn't worry.

bacuse every day when I wake up,

and try to please THEM

And only displease myself

and make myself think less,

less of me, my own being.

when in reality I should wake up 

and think,

what am I gonna think about ME today
