Gotta love yourself, gotta be your best friend Ain't nobody who'll wait on you When you're acting like you're nearing the end Even though it's tough, been through so much What you know you take from it and shape it Until it makes you strong When you find that strength Really can't complain The same stuff that brought you down Is the same that makes you turn all around Over the heads of the ones you dread And nothing comes between you and your higher place Ever again, ever again, ever again Don't you understand me? I don't feel anymore what I felt before
Don't you understand me? I don't feel anymore what I felt before Gotta give it up, gotta stand on top Get your feet back on the ground And walk away from what gets you down There is no time for doing the crime Robbing yourself of life that could be Much like a walk in the light I'm not so special I've come back from hell To realize that nothing matters ever Unless I let it, unless I let it, unless I let it An invitation to my graduation Gotta listen to the positive message And take it all in, take it all in, take it all in
