Independently Me

Some people need a hand to hold.

An arm around them when they are feeling cold.

But I am learning to be brave and bold.

This boy is not one to be told.

There is no point for you to disagree.

Because I am independently me.

Many need words of courage from another mouth.

Another person to distinquish any thoughts of doubt.

But that is not what I am about.

I can council myself and it will cost me nowt.

There's a glowing feeling about being free.

When I become independently me.

Others want a shoulder to cry.

Someone else to keep their spirit high.

But I've grown my own wings now watch me fly.

Only I pilot this plane that sails through a crimson sky.

Go ahead and tell me how amazing my life can be.

I'll prove I'm all that because I am independently me.
