I'm me.
They're mourning a girl
I'll never be.
I'm right in front of you,
Can't you see?
I never thought I'd be this way,
I was okay with it because
I thought they'd stay.
Then I was told
It was all a phase.
So now it's nothing but
A quiet pain.
I'm me.
The guy trying to tell you
Who I want to be.
But you don't understand
Because you won't
Listen to me,
No,
I'm not just a tomboy or gay.
Why can't you just listen
To what I have to say?
Said you'd love me
No matter what, Mom,
Was it a lie?
I don't want to blame
And say you're the reason
I cry,
Since that's only part of it.
It's all the petty bullshit.
All the emotional scars to
Add to the list,
The little shit that
Makes me pissed.
I'm me,
Can't you tell?
You can't since
I can't be me well,
I let people call me
The wrong things
And failed.
The confidence I have at times
Always fell.
Has someone called you
A name that made you frown?
The name makes me
Want to pounce,
But I don't because
I'm nice.
Trying to be myself
Comes with a price,
How come to be myself
There has to be a sacrifice?
All these people hear me
And act like blind mice.
Obviously your not listening,
I told you who I was
And my name,
And you're still saying the same.
Does it look like to me
That this is a game?
I'm trying so hard to survive
Can't you see?
But no one around has been listening.
I'm me.

(This is about being trans btw)
