What You Do

Born in the shadows, I didn't have a say,

Questions in my heart, wondering who I'd be today.

But as I walked this path, I began to see,

It's not where I'm from, but what's inside of me.

The world may try to tell you who you are,

But the truth lies deeper, it's written in your scars.

It's not the start, it's how you play your part,

The choices that you make, that's where it starts.

It's not about how you began,

But what you do with life, the mark you leave, the man you stand.

Every step you take, every dream you chase,
