Be Real or Be Gone

 Be Real or Be Gone 

 

Be real or be gone, my new philosophy in life when it comes to the people around me. 

Life is too short to deal with fake people, negative people and people who only want to use others for their own personal gain. 

If you want to be in my life in any capacity, be real, be authentic, don’t fucking lie to me, or just leave me be. 

My peace is more important than surrounding myself with people, especially those that don’t truly care, that will only bring pain! 

 

So, be real or be gone, I can’t take anymore shit, I’ve been through enough. 

I’m tired, I want calm, I want peace, and it would be nice to have love but only without the bullshit and lies. 

I need sincerity, honesty, consistency, and loyalty; the lack of which is the reason life has made me so tough. 

Also, it’s the reason that after a wonderful day, my brain rips it apart and this strong woman cries. 

 

Be real or be gone, my heart has been broken enough by friends, family and lovers alike. 

I’m ready for peace and happiness in my life, even if that means I end up going on alone. 

I’m no longer accepting anything but authentic and real, people who truly give a shit about me, anyone else can go sit and spin on a spike. 

This new chapter in my life is about me and what I need, so be real or be gone, I don’t need fake in my zone!
