Unveiled

Because we aren't what you want us to be,

You shut us out completely and refuse to set us free.

Why can't we lock you up for not being the same as us?

If we could all work together there would be no need for such a fuss.

and what is normal when it is not defined by you?

It is only a word, that much is all we can be sure is true.

Society is telling us how to live a respectable life...

Yet they don't know our situations, they don't know our strife.

No person can walk a mile in someone else's shoe

If you were born into a different life who knows what you would do?

So we guess the question we are asking is why should you shun us..

When really you have the same biological potential to become us?
