I'm stepping out of my shell
My mother's name is not Mi Shelle
I have my own name and I got a story to tell
Had to save myself, Can't keep waiting for the bell
I tend to sympathize with the beasts, that's the beauty of being a Bell
A deep thinking empath makes me willing and able
Although, over the years, I've become more selective of who can sit at my table
The reason I'm stepping out of my shell
To uplift my soul, for my spirit to be enabled
I have shed uncountable tears as I was living in fear
As I step out of my shell, I hear the universe rejoice
It was the entity waiting for me to make a better choice
I'm stepping out of my shell to let go of my personal hell
Leaning in to love and life
That is the mission
The reason I am choosing freedom over life in a shell
