Take a Look
Take a Look
Take a look around you
Is it everything you dreamed?
Is it what you always wanted?
Is it even what you need?
Look at your life and how you live it
Did it turn out as you liked?
Or are you a perfect stranger
Living someone else’s life?
When you see your reflection in the mirror?
Is it who you want to be?
Or is it someone you don’t know
Is it someone else you see?
Do you see yourself as others do?
Or do you look inside?
‘Cause if you go by looks alone
Shallowness may be your only guide.
Next time you look in the mirror
Look past everything you see
Look deep inside at who you are
And who you want to be.
