Am I good enough as I am?
in my own heart, I want to believe that I'm intelligent,
a family of frauds and drop outs,
studies say I'll only ever be as smart as they are,
however, my report card is lined with A's,
while she didn't make it past 9th grade,
Did my environment save me from stupidity,
or am I a fool,
tricked by myself into thinking I'm something I'm not?
comparing our lives,
It's obvious I've made wiser decisions,
so why does science defy me?
Saying I'll only ever be as good as them?
Do the laws of scientific reasoning not apply to me,
or am I only deceiving myself, and what I can do?
which turned me into me?
Nature, or nurture?
or could it be a combination of the two?
