Why be false?

by Just Jo   Jan 20, 2006


Why do people say things
when they don't mean a word
or why do people treat others
like they shouldn't be herd?
Why do we worry about school
if we work hard we not cool?
Why do we care what others think
or say, Stand up be yourself today

don't ever be afraid of what you are
be yourself be that star
who cares what people say its your world too
don't let people but u down or judge you
Why do we care what others think
or say, Stand up be yourself today

be able to look in the mirror and be proud
show your not like the rest in the crowd
you stood up and wasn't ashamed of you
you stood up, you new what to do

don't cry because of someone speaking there mind
they don't no anything,they only see the
shield your hiding behind

don't ever be afraid of what you are
be yourself be that star
who cares what people say its your world too
don't let people but u down or judge you
Why do we care what others think
or say, Stand up be yourself today
