I never wanted to cause a scene, and I never wanted to rock the boat, so my whole life, I've just been sitting back taking notes. I've been dying to make a difference, sick and tired of the same old thing. But, I was too scared to stand up, speak up, and make the necessary change. No more will I sit in silence, I won't take what comes, I will fight for what I deserve. And I won't be pushed around, I'll be respected and heard. So what if I'm pesky? So what if I'm a bother? So what if I do rock the boat and end up in the water? I'm through with dodging conflict and trying not to step on any toes. I'm through with sitting back, accepting what comes and goes. This is my life and I will no longer be just a bystander on the side. I will be who I am and get what I deserve, because now I refuse to hide.
