I surround myself with hustlers
Whether it's book smart, street smart,
Whatever. Hardwork understands hardwork
I don't do fakeness. You may not like what I say
But you'll always know where you stand with me
I don't understand people's word and actions not matching up
For me, there is no compromise.
If you're important to me then I'll be loyal to a fault
And if you're not, I won't.
Life is short. I don't have time to second guess where I stand with someone
Can I get a witness to this scene?
We all do this at some point or another,
Some do it far too often
We feel chagrin when we acknowledge how shoddy our life is
Yet many of us never apply ourselves to do anything to fix it
Get down to the business of being loved by yourself and yourself only
Learn the rules of the game, master the language
Get in the right circle and concentrate on 'ARRIVING'
Doing everything right instead of trying to please others
Now that's the true intimacy of SELF-LOVE.

A bit sassy I know:-D Never feel like you don't fit in or out of place. You're not the only one who have these experiences. Be yourself. That's the only solution to moving forward, sometimes you don't need friends or circles. You need you. You need yourself to achieve your goals and dreams. You need yourself to prove to everyone that you can do what you know how to do best.
So, just be you. And I bet you, you'll love the outcome:-)
