You Are/And I

Let the light out,
Open the gates,
Free the curtains,
You're ready.

Give me your face,
For I will cleanse it.
Baptize in holy waters,
Purified, refreshed, and healed.

You are beautiful.
No one can touch your style,
Or dare to come close to your pretty face.
They should be wishing, not you.

You are brilliant.
Who possesses a creative capacity like you,
An understanding other than God?
Others are not capable to even handle your thoughts.

You are strong.
The one to cultivate tough spirit,
Only person to sacrifice to grow.
You devoured the lion they were afraid of. 

You are the greatest.
You're one step ahead of everybody,
You struggled more than their life stories,
They're all leagues behind you.

You are enough.
Close your mind to what they say,
Don't ever let anyone make you feel otherwise about yourself.
You are everything to someone and if you don't think so, let me be that someone. 

Stop with the comparisons,
Put the knife down.
Everything you want is already in front of you:the best of friends, family, happiness.
All you need to do is open your eyes and release.

Now, go out there and show them what you got.
Seize the throne and place your crown, as deserved.
Snap of the hand, they get down on their knees and bow, as where they belong.
Make me proud.
