I have to live with myself, and so, I want to be fit for myself to know, I want to be able as days go by.
Always to look myself in the eye.
I don’t want to stand with the setting sun, and hate myself for the things I have done.
I want to go out with my head erect, I want to deserve all men’s respect.
For here in the struggle for fame and self.
I want to be able to like myself.
I don’t want to look at myself and know I’m a bluster, a bluff, and an empty show I never can hide myself from ME,I see what others may never see.
I know what others may never know.
I never can fool myself, and so,Whatever happens,I want to be Self-respecting and conscience-free.
