So what if I'm not as you expected! I'm different, I'm not like you. Is this a reason for me to be neglected? I do my own thing; to me this world is new. My thoughts and opinions are not to your liking, But I love how I am. I know you find my personality shocking, But I'm only human. I don't want to conform; I like to stand out On this I stand stern, To be an individual! I shout, But you try to tie me down, Clip my wings, so I cannot fly. If I conform, all you'll see is my frown. I feel smothered, like I will die. So what if I'm different! Love me for who I am! You do know that 'm God sent, But I feel as though my life is sham. I'm not going to change to please you! You say I rebel, But is this really true? Sometimes my life feels like a living Hell! Whatever my crime, I refuse to change. I would much rather serve my time, I simply refuse to listen to a word you say! You just have to deal Take me as I am, or leave me alone. I have the time to kill As you sit there deciding on how to make me your clone, But I am what I am, And I'm comfortable with being me, I hate living this shame! Loving myself, now that's the true key.!!!
