On where the truth comes from

Others will speak words about you

Try to tell you who you are

You will question yourself

Second guess your choices

Feel strong emotions

Believe them for a second

But don’t tail spin

Don’t stall out

Do not move forward in that belief

Center yourself

Ask the hard questions

Go to your people

But don’t let those words destroy you

Change you

Turn into anger

Instead come out stronger softer surer

“There is another

Who bears witness about me

And I know that the testimony

That he bears about me

Is true”
