I am who I am.
I'm hiding
And I'm scared to come out
There's nothing wrong with me
Being gay is not a bad thing
I just feel I can't tell them
My parents, my friends
Will they look at me differently?
If I tell them who I am inside
I am who I am
And I'm scared to come out
I'm scared of people looking at me differently
Of teachers pitying me, asking me if I want a private chat
Scared of being bullied
Scared of what my parents and brothers will say
Scared of being left alone, without friends
I'm scared of the world
I feel they are all against me
I am who I am
And I'm scared of what will happen if I stop hiding, if I come out
Scared of what will happen if I show who I truly am on the inside the light
What will people think of me, what will they say
I've been hiding for 9 months now
But I feel I can't come out
I only told 2 people
A friend who moved schools who is gay
And my best friend who was there too
If anyone else knows, I feel they'll look at me differently
I won't get a boyfriend because I'm not straight
