let 'em speak

I'm a lost cause
They say
I'm crazy
They say
They like to say things they find hard to believe
Just because they want to find a reason to believe it
They give labels to things that don't need em
Just because they don't know what else to call it
Outsider
Hood
Cheat
Thief
They're all different words
Meant to inflict the same meaning
That I'm no good
I'm a nobody
I'm nothing

If it makes em feel better
I'll let em say whatever they want to
If it means they can learn kindness and acceptance
Sometime in the near future
