All I Have Is Myself
The only thing I trully own,
Are lonely dreams and lonely goals.
The only certain one I know,
Is the one inside my only soul.
The only thing that's meant to be,
Is being myself, only being me.
The only thing people can't take away,
Is whats in your heart and what you want to say.
Theres nothing better than being yourself,
It's not the game you play but the hand you're dealt.
After these lines, feelings still never felt,
That in the end all I have is myself.
