confidence

With my head high towards the sky
my chest stuck out
my walk swift
my stance erect

I stand proud
With the gleam in my eyes
the sureness in my voice
an honest smile
a positive mind
I rejoice!!

and I stand proud
Conceited - never
confident - forever
no man can knock me down
faith in my creator is all I need
cause that's who planted the seed
of confidence, yes indeed

I don't have to say it
I pray it
don't have to show it
I know it
confidence radiates from the inside out
and I glow it

Self-pride is the energy that I exude
not a narcissistic attitude
I dance to the beat of my own drum
no rat-ta-tat-tat or rum-pa-pum-pum

I'm just happy to be me
plain and simply
confidently.
