Dare to be Different

Dare to be different,

dare to be proud.

Stand up and be counted,

from within the crowd.

Don’t worry what they think,

or what they say.

What they think,

is pointless anyway.

Stand up and be heard,

from within the herd.

Tell us your story,

with your own special words.

Who are you really,

are you like the rest?

Are you fighting and scrambling,

to be the best?

It’s life’s biggest test,

are you like the rest?

Don’t you waver,

give us your flavor!

By sharing your truth,

you do us a favor!

Life is short,

and often we get lost.

When we hide who we are,

there is a cost.

We lose who we are,

and we lose the test.

Just to please the crowd,

we hide our best.

So stand and be heard,

from within the crowd.

Show us your colors,

and make us proud.
