Integrity

The answers to your questions

You have to find within

The truth is for the seeking

And first you must begin

Take a different attitude

To the things that they propose

Choose the most appropriate thing

Before resentment grows

They want you to abide by

The conventions that are in place

But you've got to be at one with

What you see in your own face

You've got to find a niche or nook

In which to invest time

Passion too and discipline

So your creations do align

Your vision of yourself is all

That really should now matter

You're on your own and adult now

There is much more to consider

Examine your own morals

From whence did they arrive

Are you sure that they are what you need

To make your bright light shine

You do not have to be the same

As everyone before

You do not have to feel a guilt

Or shame, you can ignore

Be your own creation

Style yourself, yourself

Embrace the inner anxiety

And say it how you felt

Be true, build an integrity

Try to pay back debts

Build a personality

That no one can upset
