I can't be silenced

I am constantly growing,
improving myself,
through self reflection and thought,
through knowing I can do more than you thought,

I will survive without you,
I will be better than you ever knew I could be
You have no control over my life.

I will become more than you ever doubted,
More than you are now,
I doubt myself sometimes and then I realize that
You were the only one who doubted me!
and now I do it to myself.

Given the chance,
I know I can go beyond these borders I have created for myself in my own life,
We create barriers for ourselves,
when other people voice that we can't do it we doubt our own capabilities,
Not now!

You tried to silence me and make me something I am not,
I think you forgot that I can't be quieted,
my mind and conscious will always break through.
