Love from above

Israel,when I came to you I fell in love.

I immediately knew your beauty was from above.

To extol your praises where do I start
For so full and overflowing is my heart

You are my only home no matter where I was born
To be away from you would mean to be torn

As walking on this land that is you
Tradition and nation feel Divinely true

To live in the land where G-d never looks away
Is heart and soul where I want to stay

Love yourself

Love yourself you are worth the time
Love yourself you were made Divine
Love yourself the world needs your shine
So stop dwelling on what you feel is not fine
Because no matter what you never lose your Divine design
Love yourself you have a whole world inside
That is only camouflaged by your pride
Love yourself and get past the divide
So you can find so much more of you on the other side
Let yourself free to really and truly be
That is when it's okay for me to be me
Then your beauty and greatness within
Comes out with passion , and thats no sin
So love yourself you are worth the time
Don't cheat yourself and don't stay blue
For the world was created for you to be you

There is always a diamond

There is always a diamond even if you only see the rough

If there it stays no matter how tough

It will never be enough

For no diamond is going to shine when covered in grime

So if you want the value you are going to have to put in the time

To discover , dig , and get it out

To shape it and shine it then you find what it's about

The diamond was always a diamond even when underground

But if all you see is the ground the rough , the muck

You will never look for the diamond and will always be stuck

If the diamond is in your mind it is the diamond you will find

Seeing past the ground, seeing the abundance that will abound

You are the diamond no matter how tough the rough

Keep that in focus , do the work and you will shine that's no bluff
