I'd rather be who I am
than look and talk like someone else!
I would find no solace in becoming
what God and I couldn't manufacture in myself!
I would be just a cookie cutter of shape and design
and never really stand out in a crowd.
Then I might be obnoxious or rude?
And be overly confident and tad bit proud!
God has blessed me with all the gifts I have
and another might still be working on all of theirs.
I might be someone who know one enjoys to be around
and they may show me, they don't even care?
So I'll stay the way God made me for now
untill I am given an Angelic style and form.
Because this is the way I was meant to be
it's the way that I was born!
