Maybe (Motivational Speech) [Shoutout to My Haters]

They said i changed...

Maybe... They were just jealous because they didn't change

Maybe... They were ASHAMED because they didn't change

Maybe... they were DISAPPOINTED they remained the same.

Yeah i changed.

Like anyone with ambition remains the same!

Yeah i changed

I changed everything but my name.

I wasn't born a miracle to be average

I have no desire to fit in

No desire to conform to anyones wishes

But it have every desire to improve myself

Every day, every hour every minute.

They will say you didn't make time for them

Maybe they weren't worth your time

They laughed at my dreams & goals

Maybe... They were embarrassed because they didn't have any

Maybe their dreams were nightmares

Maybe their lives were a horror story.

They said i was arrogant

Maybe... They just hated my ambition

Maybe... They were to ashamed they had none themselves

Maybe... i remind them of their weakness

They said i wouldn't make it to the top

Listen, They said i wouldn't make it full stop.

They said i would fail, i would fall

That no one would believe in me, they gave me so many reasons.

But they forgot to ask about my desire.

They never asked if i was willing to sacrifice

They never asked if i would do whatever it takes

Maybe if they did they would have kept quiet

Maybe... they wanted to ensure they had someone to sit with

At the bottom of the mountain

You know, with the majority of people that didn't put in the work

Who didn't have the courage

The drive, the will, the passion

To fight for their dreams, to sacrifice, or even to conquer

Maybe they were afraid... because they didn't have what it takes

What it takes to keep up with my drive.

To go toe to toe with my passion

They will say you never make the time for them

Maybe you only make time for the people that are worth your time.

Maybe there is a lack of those people

Maybe they are not those people

Someone once told me:

It is better to be hated for what you are then to be loved for what you are not.

It is better to walk alone and be successful, then to walk with those who wander aimlessly through life and end up in the middle of no-where

But it's ok

Because when my circle got smaller my drive got bigger

When my circle got smaller: my vision got larger

When my circle got smaller: my circle got stronger.

The proof is always in the pudding

You can't fake results!

I move on without them

I know i am stronger!

I know i am better!

I know i am greater!

Without them it is a blessing

Without them i keep on growing

Moving forward

I'm connastntly on the move without them

You are not a puddle

Don't let them walk all over you

You are not a sliding door

They can not look right through you

You are not a doormat

Don't let them wipe their dirt on your face

You are not below them

Don't let them look down on you

Stand tall

Walk strong

Hold your own

There is no one above or below you

There is no one superior or inferior to you

You must always hungry

But don't ever lose your passion or your compassion

You have enormous drive

But don't lose your humility

Put yourself in their shoes

But don't live in them

Live your life

Let them live theirs

Go after your dreams

Let them decide their own fate ...

You said i would never make it in life

You said I would fail

You said I would humiliate myself

I didn't have it in me

I was no good

I wouldn't succeed

You said I was weak

You said I wasn't strong

I guess they didn't know what i knew

That i would make it

Maybe not immediately, but absolutely and definitely

The difference between winning or losing

The difference between those that do, and those that don't make it in life

It isn't about talent

It isn't about any type of magical formula

The difference is character

It is your human spirit

And if you're going to make it in this world

Living out your dreams or living out your nightmares

It is completely up to what you do.

It all comes down to you
