Let it shine

Let your light shine and don’t be deterred

I know it’s infuriating when they try to infer

That what you display in your style, could be theirs

And your hairstyle, clothes, shoes

They continuously compare

It’s not your fault that their style cannot feel like their own 

Similarities must be spoken or openly shown

Even if when your looks aren’t remotely the same

Tilt your head maybe squint till your eyes start to strain

What they tend not to say is 

You hold special light 

It lights up the room and it glows super bright

A beacon so effortless stirs up internal fight 

So they match what you have 

Must be better, yeah right 

Don’t let if effect you, don’t make yourself small

You were gifted that light so it’s yours after all 

Take that light as a shield to protect you from battery 

Then wrap up each word and receive it as flattery 

You hold something special, unique and divine

So go on, you got this, just let your light shine.
