if only you can see it from every angle, every side where am i allowed to be myself? only in my words and where i write it seems like what i was, am doesn't deserve life i pondered what to do with my struggle every night help me god, i prayed, help me survive i was told im too weird to live, but i didn't want to die i couldnt change my kind no matter how often i tried you swear this is living, having to hide? expected to hold on, yet left alone to fight i hate my oppressors, yet i'm told to be kind
