Here's to the kids who
Need validation
to feel worthy
Here's to the kids who
Need permission
to be themselves
To the kids who
cry themselves to sleep
because things can be too much
To the kids who
always always feel
they do not belong
To the kids who
keep everything to themselves
because they're tired
Of being misunderstood
Of being ridiculed
Of being judged
Here's to that kid
I am that kid.

Of being misunderstood
Of being ridiculed
Of being judged
Here's to that kid
I am that kid.
