The Real You Poem by Hector Leal

Why do you have to hide who you are on the inside
You should just hold your head high and walk with pride
Why do you have to be scared of who you really are
Doing that just won't get you far

Why put yourself through all that pain of hiding the real you
Who cares what people think unless they can see it from your point of view
Life is not about looking hot or owning nice things
What it is really about is being true to yourself

If your friends can't accept you for who you really are
Forget them because their not even worth trying to impress
If you can see life from my point of view
Nothing can ever bug you
