Living in the shadow »
Can you imagine what kind of life it is to live?
In the shadows people see you as happy and free
Because that's what you want them to see
Living two lives, happy, but not free
You live in the shadows for fear of someone hurting your family or the person you love
The world is changing and they say it's time to be free
But you live with the fear of just being me
Living in the shadow feels like the safe place to be
No harm for them, no harm for me
But life is short, and it's time to be free
Love who you love, because life isn't guaranteed
Smile
Lyrics from jay z's smile is full of lesson i love the ending part, the above were words from his mother and it really something to ponder about, do you want to keep living in the shadow faking happiness or you want to show yourself to the world and be really happy?
We live a life where we look up to the society views on whatever it is we want to do, we let what people think determine what we do and become entangled in a cage remain sad and fake happiness, we keep dying inside and we end up not living because we are not living when we are not happy and the thing is nothing is worth our happiness. Nothing is worth our freedom, we live in a world where we are suppose to be free why would we choose to still be slave to ourselves. Life is short! Be happy, stay happy and don't forget to smile
