Being The Best Me I Can Be



The best me, the best me is all I want to be
Living in the sunlight of my eternal flame
Dancing to the beat of drums, shaking my soul is the key to this game
My fate has been determined, without power or fame

The real me is the best of me, is what I should be able to see
Freeing my mind from fear, climbing the tallest tree
The best me is what my spirit tells me I should see
When I look at the mirror, my shadow does not look like me

How can I see the real me, when the me I thought I should be
Stares at the reflection of me asking who are you? And why did you choose me?
You are the only one I know, isn’t that plain to see?
All of my life I tried to live up to the reflection I thought was me
Now you tell me you are not really you and I am not really me?

I hate to break the news to you my companion who I call my shadow
All of this time I really thought I was being who I wanted to be
But now I see that the trying I thought would produce me
Ended up being a version of me I never wanted to be

The day has come and the time is right
The past days fight no longer applies going into this world of night
Diving into the seat of my soul is like seeing light for the first time
Gone are the days of unconscious reaction, this day is mine to make
All of my days are longer with more time to create
A greater version of me, more than I could ever see

Now I understand that the best me I could be
Could not be
Without me being me.
