Kenzo Cole - Me 4 Me (from ORACLE the Film)

At age 12 I really didn’t care about seeing tomorrow
Didn’t really wanna be here
Felt unfair that I had to prepare
To let go of my happiness 'fore I even knew it was there
I thought who could love me
Dirty, and so unclean, hatred and jealousy is all I could see
Who am I to be brilliant, talented, fabulous, and so gorgeous
But who am I not to be? And now I
Love me for me that’s all I wanna be
If I look crazy I guess that what it seems
But I can only be me, no fear inside of me
Wish you could hurt me but you can’t kill a dream
Well, I just know,
That I’m the baddest in the room at any given moment,
It’s an aura, an energy
Something you exude, can’t be bought
At 18 I hit the world by myself
Young and naive I thought that I knew the deal
Bravado never sat well with my soul
I ain’t got to be like nobody else
I had a couple past dues, woulda helped if I knew
Time past, my hair grew, I got a new attitude
And now I’m way to schooled for your facades of cool
Somehow even got chosen family too
Daddy was pissed bout how I walked and how I talked
Never the rough kid that he wanted
I like big earrings, flashy clothes, trips to the store
I want my face beat don’t you forget to highlight the corner
At 22 a different person a new,
Had to let go of everything that I knew
Silly of me to think that I already run out of time,
Never knew that it could be so divine
La la lo lo love, loving me for me
Loving me for, loving me for me yeah
Love me for me that’s all I wanna be
If I look crazy I guess that what it seems
But I can only be me, no fear inside of me
Wish you could hurt me but you can’t kill a dream
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure
It’s scary to think about what we can create
Or what we can destroy, by simply being ourselves
