Privileged!

I try to speak

You interject

Reminding me you won’t be changing for No-ba-dy! (nobody), while snapping your fingers with pure sass

You say the world is privileged to have you

So you wear You proudly like a brand name scarf and tell us all to accept it or ..well, accept it.

Err, okay…

I get it!

But allow me 30 seconds to finish please..

 

You are privileged to be you

So am I

I’m privileged to be me

Doesn’t mean I should get stuck in the same level of me

Of everything, change is the constant thing

So I wont fight it!

God helping me

I’m gonna make the best out of E (Elena)

 

With every step

I’m gonna strengthen my strengths

and weaken my weaknesses

I’m gonna accept constructive criticism, mind you I said constructive

I’m gonna set pride aside

and put wisdom in its place

Cause otherwise it will be like..

like looking in the mirror and turning away

doing nothing about any dismays

or like swagger gone gaga

what a saga!

 

I’m privileged to be me

Doesn’t mean I’m perfect

Doesn’t mean I won’t invest in my reform

Or that my brand name scarf can’t be better designed

 

10 secs left

 

I speak

You interject

But let me finish please

The world is privileged to have you,  yes

But like an inheritance not redeemed

You will find your potential not released

Unless you take a critical look at the internal deeds

And realize the world is always looking for a better brand name

No diss, I just don’t want you to go extinct.

 

~ Elena
