“Get your head in the game”

I know you feel insane

It’s okay to feel it all

I’ll catch you if you fall

You feel abandoned, even by your mind

Compromise, don’t be blind

You have such beauty inside and out

Of this I have no doubt

You’re everything

Even when you feel like you have nothing

You’re perfect as you are

You’re your own kind of beautiful, even with scars

I know things are tough right now

You can take more than you think your mind will allow

I know how you feel, because I feel it too

It’s difficult to know, but I know we’ll make it through

Hanging on tightly to the best feelings

Even as you deal with your inner demons

Be your own kind of protagonist

Just be you, do what makes you passionate

Design your own theory, your own story

Be yourself, the best you in all your glory

Be your own strength and happiness

Do what makes you happiest

Make sure you’re the one making your dreams come true

I know you don’t know how, but none of us really do

It’s about quality of love

Not about quantity

You love those in your life as much as you possibly can

You just need to love where it all began

Don’t forget what you can do

Be yourself, be true

You deserve this happy life

You deserve all kinds of light

Light up your lonely heart

Don’t let the past tear you apart

Keep dreaming about the future and the now

You’ll do great, even if you don’t know how

Appreciate your love and those who love you

Even when it’s out of the blue

Dream the happiest and best

Even as you feel so much stress

Tell yourself that you are beautiful, especially when you don’t believe

You never know how much you will achieve

Dreaming of what you can become

I know sometimes you feel so numb

It’s not easy to fall in love with yourself

But I’m here for you and I’ll learn about myself

We’ll learn together, no matter how hard it can be

No matter how you feel, even if you think you’re beastly

Even though the pain from over the years is still there

Just know that I will always care

Your love never gets on my nerves

Even as I feel it swerve

I love you the way you are

Even as you feel away, so far
