Upbeat

Your Attitude Matters

You were so upbeat when you were young 
Chirping away like a bird 
Nonstop going yada yada yada yada yada
So what stopped you from doing that 

What stopped you from moving and grooving and dancing in delight?
Why did you let somebody or something silence you with doubt or fear or anxiety or sadness

Who took away you upbeat attitude?
It doesn’t matter
Return 
Return to your childhood days

When you were filled with wonder 
When you kept asking questions 
When you kept talking all things 
Return to that wonderland 

Where everything mattered 
Where your eyes kept twinkling 
And your soul kept dancing
Do it

Don’t let anybody take away your upbeat attitude 

Don’t let anybody say no to you
Don’t let anybody do anything around you
Take back what is yours

Today you might be silent 
Tomorrow it’s gonna be different 
Keep that in mind 
Act 

Become who you were meant to be
Go back to who you once were 
Upbeat attitude 
Childlike wonder 
Be the darling that you were 
Attitude matters

Today maybe painful
Tomorrow disastrous 
Don’t let anybody stop you
From moving and grooving and enjoying your life 

You’ve got only one life 
Take it back 
Be whole
Become who you were meant to be 
Attitude matters

Go back to who you were 
Tell yourself—ain’t nothing worth pouting 
Bless the world outside of you
Bless the world within you 
Attitude matters

Take back your freedom 
Take back your wonder
Take back your delight 
It’s time to write your own story 
Attitude matters 
Tell yourself that 

Keep your focus on that 
Let life take you where you need to be going 
Help yourself along the way where you need to be showing 
up for yourself and for others 
Attitude matters 
Take it back 

Today maybe painful 
Tomorrow might bring in tornados 
Don’t let anything move you
Keep your eyes on your attitude 

Because why miss on anything henceforth?
Let your attitude take you places you have never imagined 
Give it some room to exist within you
Shower some love some hugs and kisses 

Let your attitude take you around 
And show you what’s in store for you
Attitude matters
Let it guide you and make you holy

Let it cheat the system that makes you wanna cry
From now on there’s gonna be no more tears 
Don’t let anybody beat the shit out of you 
Instead let your attitude beat the shit out of them

Let your attitude take you out for a stroll
Enjoy the view from where you are at
With attitude in your heart 

 It’s always been like that 
Mind over matter
Always from eternity to eternity 
Mind can be over matter

Attitude can take you places 
Let it make you fly away to a distant land 
Where nobody can touch you 
Let attitude do wonders to you
Let it

Whatever comes up ahead 
Always keep this in mind
Your attitude at your encounters
Is all that eventually matters

It’s all about your attitude 
When life says—I’m like that 
Attitude matters 
Take it 

Will you let attitude take you places?
Think about this 
Peace ✌🏽
