Analysis of Stand Tall
Hate me or love me I don’t care
Ur opinions of me are not the reason I’m here
I’ve come to free you from traps that have been placed
They feed you lies straight to your face
We learn to deny and then to hate
But if you think hate is stronger then love just wait
For I have seen those who see through these illusions
And they overcome all intrusions
They can not be torn down to a place below
Instead they provide an open window
An opportunity for fresh air to breathe
And acceptance of self so despair can leave
Live with an open mind and heart
The end will be easy if that’s how you start
