Ever since i've been on this cocoon
I never knew what being normal is
I never understood why I had to be different
I never understood why I couldn't do what others can
I never knew why I went on different school

As I grew...
I still couldn't get why I was a laughing stock
Yes, I was different but am I that funny?
What is it that makes me an isolated party in this island
Oh creator!!
if i'm made in your imagine then why am IĀ Ā a vessel of laughter ?
Whether I take the stairs or the elevator
Whether I walk or I sit
I always have an audience

My life is a museum
A museum full of abnormal treasures
Oh creator
if i'm made in your image then why am I a vessel of corrections
As I grew...
I realised that it is not that I can't
I can
I can because i'm differently able not Disable

Oh creator I am made in your image
I might be a vessel of pity to man
But I know I am a vessel of hope and courage in your eyes
I am not disable
I am differently able
I will live my life with full joy
I will never let pity dictate my future
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

Oh creator
Regardless of how I walk or talk nor think
I am made in your Image
