I will not conform to your ideal. I will not follow the footsteps of those ahead of me or those behind me. I will not copy the beliefs of my peers Unless I agree of course. For I have my own mind, my own style, my own grace, My own pace. I walk the way I wanna walk And I talk the way I wanna talk. And I feel the only way I know how to feel, With passion, power and a delicate strength. If you are so lucky to see... I will not groove to the sound of your music, If it’s not to my beat. I will not laugh at your jokes To be in your good seat. I will not play in your colours, If you’re not in my team. Because I can jump and kick about, Or stay silent in my dreams. I am not trying to be a rebel, renegade or revolutionist Being different is all the same. I’m not going out of my way to defy, disregard or disagree. I am an influencer, influencee, influenced. I am a piece of all of you And I am a picture of no one I believe everyone makes mistakes. I believe we can all be a disgrace . I believe we can all fall into the same trap. I believe once and a while we can all snap. What I believe you may not agree. What I say you may not relay. But you might just remember this, I believe being wrong is a right.

Being Wrong Is A Right
I will not conform to your ideal. I will not follow the footsteps of those ahead of me or those behind me. I will not copy the beliefs of my peers Unless I agree of course.

And I feel the only way I know how to feel, With passion, power and a delicate strength. If you are so lucky to see... I will not groove to the sound of your music, If it’s not to my beat. I will not laugh at your jokes To be in your good seat. I will not play in your colours, If you’re not in my team. Because I can jump and kick about, Or stay silent in my dreams. I am not trying to be a rebel, renegade or revolutionist Being different is all the same. I’m not going out of my way to defy, disregard or disagree. I am an influencer, influencee, influenced.
