All the friends I had
Never understood me.
My learning capacity outmatched them.
They said I didn't really belong there.
True...
My family taunted me because I spoke English.
Our culture is different from my thinking.
I wished I could fit in,
But it was obvious that I didn't
...I guess
I wanted to be the smartest kid in my school
Because people made me feel like I was a fool.
I was locked up in my room,
Sucking up knowledge from my books.
Maybe I was better than they said I was.
Maybe I was meant to get out of the place where I was.
My neighbour always said I was better than this.
The place where I lived doesn't define me.
But I isolated myself so I won't get badly influenced.
I don't wanna fit in.
I don't want to be a cool kid.
I don't want to be part of the streets.
I don't want to fail my community.
I locked myself in my room
Reading my favourite books.
That was my favourite thing to do.
Isolated myself so that I don't get used.
