My Pride!

My pride, my pride, it shines so bright
But sometimes, it gets in the way of my sight
I hold my head up high, full of confidence and might
But my ego can blind me from what’s right

I push and I strive, always reaching for the top
But my pride can make me stumble and flop
It’s hard to admit when I’m wrong or need help
But to truly succeed, my ego must be kept in check

I’ll swallow my pride and let humility take the lead
In the long run, it’s the only way to succeed
So I’ll take a step back and learn to compromise
And let my pride take a back seat, for it’s time to be wise

My pride, my pride, it’s a part of who I am
But I won’t let it hold me back, for that’s not the plan
I’ll use it to push forward but with grace and humility
With a healthy balance, success will come.
