Let Me Be Who I Want to Be
Hear what I have to say
you don’t consider this every day
I’m just a human being living
and breathing
don't you see what I’m seeing
I smell coffee
I eat Oreos
When has liking someone ever been a crime
I don’t want to
be your mysterious mime
I like someone different so do you
but to me it's natural.
I can’t change who I am
but I know that you can
Before you knew
we stuck to each other like glue
now you know
you go
I thought we were in the 20 first century
where we can do things differently
it was good
I hope now you'll see
that we're not that different you and me
but no
you'd make jokes about me
if you knew
you would look at me differently too
Now you see why I cannot
tell this to people
cause you’d just
laugh laugh laugh at me
and
talk talk talk to me
It’s true you know it
you just don’t want to admit it
you'd drift away from me like a lonely star
I’d just keep collecting small invisible scars
You know what I don’t think is fair
I've never met a princess who
Does not get kissed by a prince that is
Misleading
So we cant be exceeding
Discrimination
A new form of torture
Just because I like someone different
It doesn't matter
We should take a stand
Stand hand in hand
I'm not going to be fanned away anymore
I don't want that to happen
So no further questions, please
This is who I am
Me
