Why am I this and why am I that? Do you think I prefer staying oblivious to these questions? I didn’t make myself, then why am I accountable? What holds these answers if anything? All I know is I’m here I am who I am I might change in the future And I might be lying to myself about who I was before But I’m all here now, and I have the power to look back What am I? Human Shameless Passionate Perhaps even attractive What baggage do I carry? Perhaps more and less than the average Perhaps I have a brain cell or two to bring along But no matter how hard I try, I’m still the person I was a second ago And that is a life-long sentence
