[hometext] => To my musical mentors. May you finally see my true potential
[bodytext] => There is a star shining inside of me Wherever you are she's longing to be free And when time and tension seem to prevail I find a way to prove that I will not fail (chorus) Oh-oh these mere imitations Performed for gratification Only reveal half of what you should see These mere imitations conflict with this generation Should we just let it be Emulation I'm skilled at when I sing To Norah Jones, Pat Benatar, Carole King Yet in the light everything's not what it seems Proving my worth is a lifelong dream (chorus) If you really see me through Why do I strive to please you What else can I do If this talent does not fully bloom Have you truly seen me through Am I obligated to please you There is a star shining inside of me Right where you are she's waiting to be free [comments] => 1 [counter] => 113 [topic] => 61 [informant] => Deidra_Carmichael [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )
