Pep-Talk

Stop.
Breathe.
Smile.
Have a good look at the people around you
Everyone has a story to tell
Just like you, they’re going through
Every kind of heaven and hell.
You gotta stop trying
To fit in or be liked and accepted
Time will show who is worth keeping
And who will walk with you ahead.
You gotta keep your head high
Open and welcoming
‘Cause the world has too much to share
Its really not fair
For you to always compare
You may like to keep some moments with you
And sometimes, you have to just not care.
You gotta be open and not so choosy
‘Cause you may not always get what you expect
You gotta fake it till you make it
‘Cause no, life isn’t perfect.
You gotta stop regretting
The choices you already made
You can’t keep living this way,
Feeling all betrayed and afraid.
Tomorrow is a brand new day
So leave the prejudices of today behind
You gotta live your life in play mode
You don’t have an option of forward and rewind.
Yes you can get back up
Go out there to find your spot
You gotta try to be happy
With whatever you got.
Don’t run away, it won’t solve a thing
You can definitely stay strong
It may seem like forever,
But actually it’s not been so long.
So hold on tight
Put your seatbelts on
Enjoy the show
‘Cause before you know,
It will already be over and gone.
Stop.
Breathe.
Smile.
