The people around you shape who you are,
making you feel like a fool or a star!
Some lift you up, leave power and light.
They ramp up your energy, make you feel right.
Simply being with them is more than enough
to lift your spirits high and above.
Whenever an evening comes to an end,
you treasure and value the time that you spent
together. No matter what actually happened,
it was even better than what you imagined!
You could say, they have that certain kind
of energy that seems to be carefully aligned
with yours: enriching, rewarding, addictive,
like multiplying positives, non-restrictive.
Therefore, choose wisely!
And hold on to certain friends tightly.
Who do you wish to be around?
But who holds you down to the ground?
'Cause others, they leave you blank,
feeling exhausted and tired,
like they're changing the way you are wired.
I guess you know that feeling, if you are frank.
Then recalibration is in order
to draw again a clear border
between you and them and whoever
messed with you inner measure.
Therefore, choose wisely!
And hold on to certain friends tightly.
Who do you want to be?
Because you know you are free
in creating your perfect surrounding.
It's actually pretty astounding
what impact the people around you
have on which version of YOU comes through.
