To be real

Is to live with zeal

Only answering to God

With a wink and nod

Stopping to smell roses

Striking a few poses

Sharing a love

Sent from heaven above

And standing on solid ground

No matter who’s around

To be real is to be free

Knowing what’s meant to be

Seeing your purpose

Rise to the surface

Learning to let go

Of what doesn’t grow

Arriving in a place

Filled with guidance and grace

And gaining strength

When you hear God speak

That’s what you can’t conceal

When you want to be real
