What it isn’t

It’s not about the way you look
Or about the clothes you wear
It’s not about the folks you know
’cause I also know my share
I don’t care who knows your name
Or who calls you a friend
It’s not about your status
’cause I don’t go chasing trends

It’s not about the car you drive
’cause I prefer to walk
It’s not about your office size
Or how you talk the talk
It’s not about the things you own
All that is, is stuff
And I don’t care how much you make
For wealth is not enough…

To make me want to be with you
The you I’ve come to know
The one who makes me smile
And encourages me to grow
The you who makes me laugh
And wipes away my tears
The you whose lips can touch my skin
And kiss away my fears

I don’t care if you believe in God
Or if religion’s not your thing
It’s not about religion
It’s not about your things
For if you strip it all away
And cast it all aside
Where all that’s left is what’s beneath
The real you that you hide

That’s the you I love the most
The you I’ve come to know
The one who makes me smile
And encourages me to grow
The you who makes me laugh
And wipes away my tears
The you whose lips can touch my skin
And kiss away my fears

That’s the you I love the most…
