Quotes, ads, songs, and movies
Since forever have taught me
I am best just the way I was
Myself is what I can only be
It drowned me into arrogance and pride
I wore my flaws as a brooch over my vanity
I thought no part of me needs to change
To the point, I even questioned my sanity
They all sounded nice, but never true
Parts of me are still chunks of somebody else
They deceived me by saying I was purely me
While feeding me how I should act or dress
Did I choose the right somebody?
Or did I just blindly follow?
I searched all the wrong places
And picked the wrong pieces to wallow
It might be easy to be myself,
But it’s better to be that somebody else
What a perfect world, it would be
Trying to be like Muhammad (ﷺ) and none else
So I declare today, don’t be you
Be different, but let yourself be ‘he’
Because If he is that somebody else
I’m so happy to not be me
