The document is a poem about a young man who turns to his mother for advice during difficult times in his life. At ages 18 and 22, he cries to his mother, who tells him that there will be moments when he falls down but he is stronger than he feels. She advises him to just be himself and not feel like he has to act a certain way or speak loudly, as life is better when opening one's heart and being authentic. The overall message is about finding inner strength and accepting oneself.

LETRA 'BE AS YOU
ARE'
Virginia Woolf and poetry
No one seemed to notice me Being young was getting so old Cheap beer and cigarettes Life was like a movie set And I seemed to be given no role
But in times of trouble
I can turn to my mother And I know that she gon understand So at age 18 I cried to my mother And she told me, young man
There are moments when you fall to the ground
But you are stronger than you feel you are now You dont always have to speak so loud, no Just be as you are Life is not always a comfortable ride Everybodys got scars that they hide And everybody plays the fool sometimes, yeah Just be as you are
They played me on the radio
And everything was changing, so I thought I was all the way grown But I can still remember in that cold November When I realized Im all alone
But in times of trouble
I can turn to my mother And I know that she gon understand So at age 22 I cried to my mother And she told me, young man
There are moments when you fall to the ground
But you are stronger than you feel you are now You dont always have to speak so loud, no Just be as you are It doesnt matter if you become some star Life is better when you open your heart You dont always have to act so hard, no Just be as you are
