right above it
Stand tall, do not shallow yourself down
Feel like the stars, shimmering so radiant
In sight, above everything else
You can be that shimmering star.
Stand tall, cast a deep dark shadow
Show that you’re bigger than you really are
The milkshake color dust floats off your heel,
You can be that mysterious onyx shadow.
Stand tall, as that distinctive oak tree does
Reach out your leaves to accept the world
Take in what others throw away
You can be that solider of a tree.
Stand tall, for the pride of who you are
Stand tall because it’s truly you.
That’s the prize of you own sunrise,
You can be everything, including you.
