Value
Location
I worked and worked and worked
and it seemed like no one noticed the effort
only the imperfection and the short comings.
They say the industry is tough
and that you have to have thick skin
but there is a difference between criticism and hate
Being only nine
a person isn't equipped to deal with the hate
with the words that cut and burn
But getting up on stage
is an accomplishment already
just being able to say "Here I am," is enough
I know that today I am enough
and that my performance
or my looks or my voice or my money
do not define my value
Only I can decide what I am capable of
