Be who you need to be.If someone wants you to be someone who you are not, for them. Do not conform to what they WANT you to be. Be what they need you to be to them.Those who want you to be who they want you to be, so as to be comfortable and at peace within themselves, need you to be a mirror for them. So that they can see themselves. If they could see themselves clearly; they wouldn't need, nor have want, for you to be anyone other than yourself.Who is another to ask you to pretend to be someone whom you are not-- Asking you to live a lie for them, to hide the truth of yourself from them, so that they can feel comfortable about being themselves? Who is any other to expect or demand of you that you be un-true to yourself, to conform to their thinking and feeling about you because you do not fit the picture they want to see when they look upon you?If the way another sees you; and what they see doesn't match up at all. Then they tell you that they believe that you should become the way they think you should be... Because your being yourself is disturbing to them.... When they tell you that just thinking about the who/what you are, and what you represent (in their mind) is upsetting to them, makes them angry, disgust them, makes them sick, or some other nonsense like that...Just because you live according to how you see yourself, according to your own standards, rather than their standards, and how they see themselves, which leads them to see you in the distorted way that they see you...Hoping you will align yourself with their wharped image of themself.You can't help but be to another what they need you to be. For in actuality you become everything to everyone, no matter what, whether you know it or not. Though you can never become who another wants you to be, no matter how much you pretend to be, or try to be, who and what they want you to be. Because the only person you can ever be is YOU.So you might as well go ahead and be yourself, don't ya think? If you being you drives someone else crazy; who then is the crazy one?Be ... JUST....BEYOURSELF!!!You can't be nobody but you and Nobody else can be you but you.Be ever just and just Be

I'm Free
Was headed off down a mighty dark road some time ago
Didn't know which way to turn every now and then
spirit all beaten down, didn't even want to be myself
because they taught me when I was just a little child
that god ..oh god..
they said that god didn't love me
just because I am me
but then I found love and love set me freefree to be myself
since I can't be nobody else but me
and I won't .. no i won't let you bring me down
because I'm free to be myself
I really don't care what you think about it
I'm happy so happy gay and free
Can't push me back into no closet
done burned that mother down long long time ago
So if you got a ploblem
it's yours it ain't mine
so why don't you keep stepping while ya rollin' your eyes
bout to break your neck, head spinnin' round
lookin' like you f'kn' cryin tears of a clown cuz you don't even phase me
while ya being shady
Because I'm free to be myself
since I can't be nobody else but me
and I won't
no i won't let you bring me down
because I'm free to be myself and
I really don't care what you think about it
I'm happy so happy gay and free
Why do you care if I was born
with a sprinkling of sugar and spice
(and everything nice)
or when I fell in love for the very first time
it was another boi who stole my heart?
It really don't matter if you don't think it right
Since it's not you
that I want keeping me warm tonight
or for the rest of my life
I'm free to be myself
since I can't be nobody else but me
and I won't let you bring me down
because I'm free to be myself
and I really don't care
what you think about it
I'm happy so happy gay and free
Can't push me back into no closet
done burned that mother down long long time ago
So if you got a ploblem
it's yours it ain't mine
so why don't you keep stepping
while ya rollin' your eyes
bout to break your neck
head spinnin' round
lookin' like you cryin the tears of a clown
cuz you don't even phase me
while ya being shady
I'm free to be myself
since I can't be nobody else but me
and I won't let you bring me down
because I'm free to be myself
I really don't care what you think about it I'm happy so happy gay and free

Bruce, Torey, John, James, Gizmo, Stan & BjustB - On a Sunday Afternoon five months west side of June ... then here come Betty Badge, Patty Wagon & Helen Handcuffs jacking up the flow ... Sad ain't it when a man can't even sit down and have a conversation with some friends ... Just talkin while black in the great big city can put ya in a fix ... oh yeah now that was some inspiration for some lyric ... specially when it happen on the heel of me going to jail because somebody stole my identity and got caught riding a GottDamn bicycle on the sidewalk in Brooklyn (Bicycles on the Sidewalk). No, I have not ever lived on Myrtle Avenue in Brooklyn. 7 negroes at the gazebo * apple peaches sweet potato pie ** me oh my officer * Is that a crime * Well excuse me I didn't know.
My Aunt-Mama, EJ, ask me write this song (Get On Get Over & Get Off of Me) and so I did.
Prince Aloysious penned (Chapter In My Life) Just had to sing it. Indeed

Georgia On My Mind
Oh, yeah, they say I'm a dreamer, but I'm ever so glad that I'm not the only one. I've seen a ballet in my mind, and a movie upon the big screen, not to mention having heard a Broadway Melody, so many things yet to be...If dreams these things are ever meant to be, that's fine with me. I'll just keep right on BjustB-ing, ever free to be myself, as things were meant to be. When it comes to BjustB-ing, genre is meaningless. Where does BjustB fit in; wherever BjustB goes, as water flows, along paths of B's own, reflecting upon those who've inspired along the way.
