Who You Are...
Become who you are
Not who you�ll be
Look inside your heart
To finally be free
Runaway with yourself
To discover
Don�t put your life on a shelf
Be your own lover
Know who you are
Without questioning why
Discover your heart
Before it withers and dies
View life
With open eyes
Don�t stand behind a knife
For a disguise
View beauty
On the inside and out
Don�t be moody
That�s not what life�s about
Touch a tree with your hand
Feel it with your soul
Then maybe you�ll understand
Maybe you'll finally know
Who you are
Not who you might be
Grow into your heart
And finally be free
To be able to love
And to know who you are
To be thankful to God above
And to cherish the stars
