I never thought I would feel this way
Free
You showed me a light
By stabbing me with that knife
By lying and manipulating me
I am now the person I want to be
No bandages needed
I'm not hurt
You pushed and shoved everyday
I took it
I never said a thing
Now I am speaking up
But no
I'm not hurt
Because I'm invincible
So no
No bandages needed
You made me stronger
Believe it or not
I learned a lot
About how it feels to be nothing
You are a good teacher
But here's your first lesson
I'm a somebody
I'm not your
B****
Slave
Assistant
Or friend
So believe it or not
I learned a lot
Now I am not a nothing
I am a something
a person,
a human being.
And I am here to tell the world.
