Who You Are Poem by Ben Akinpelumi

You got to get up and make a move 'Cause the world will never see you until you do No, they don't really care what you're going through So you got to show them, baby You got to show them the real you You got to give them what you've got No, don't let them see what you're not 'Cause you are strong, you are wise You are worth beyond the thousand reasons why And you can't be perfect, baby 'Cause nobody's perfect, darling But, no, no, no, there's nobody in the world like you What do you do when you can't let go? What do you say when you just don't know how you feel? And you know nobody knows how you feel 'Cause everybody's got their own damn problem So everybody's trying to find their way And day by day is the struggle In this world you know you have to hustle Just know that you're not alone You don't always have to be strong all by yourself I said, it's okay to ask for help Now listen, people will find you, but they don't define you And you will find people who'll help redesign you People will find you, but they don't define you And you will find people who'll help redesign you You are a work of art Bet you didn't think you'd come this far Now here you are Baby, you are strong, you are wise You are worth beyond the thousand reasons why And you can't be perfect, baby 'Cause nobody's perfect darling But, no, no, no, there's nobody in the world like you You know you're worth it, 'cause you know that you can't be perfect, baby 'Cause nobody's perfect, darling I love you just the way that you are I love you just the way that you are, my love It's like the stars in the sky, oh, when you look in my eyes
