Value Yourself




Value yourself
It`s all I can say
Value yourself, everyday
Value yourself
No matter what
Other people might say

Start a journey
And value every step
All the way

Don`t look back
There`s no value back there
There`s no value back then
On going forward
And taking the value
Of your future
Into your hands

We are children of value
Remember
We were born in sin
But because God valued us
He still keeps us on the earth
To inherit it

You may ask
What is value?

How much money
Do you have in the bank?
What is the value
Of your house and car?
How much for the clothes
You are wearing?
Plus those jewelries
You are cherishing
That, my friend
Is not the definition
Of valuing yourself

We ignore the value within
And look for the value without
We seek that which
Cannot be found
In a treasure box
Beneath the deep blue seas
Because what is of utmost value
Is the core being
Of you and me

Love yourself
Respect yourself
And then you will be able
To value yourself

Strange


I found it very strange
That you are still here
Didn`t you say you were leaving?
You better be gone by now
Because your sight is becoming very disgusting

I found it very strange
That you of all people
Would wish to remain for another minute
Even though I accept responsibility for everything
Although I knew you are the culprit

You`re a murderer
You are guilty
But you kept pretending
Is that all you can do
Try to be innocent

I found it very strange
That you are smiling
You should be
Somewhere else
Where your show
Is much more entertaining

Please leave my life
Leave my home
Leave my presence
I found it very strange
You want to hang on

Loosen your hold
Of my broken heart
Separate your spirit
From my soul
Leave me to bear the heat
Because you are Too cold
This feeling is horrible
I found it very strange
