may I have your attention please, I have something to say
a secret from me to you that I've decided to share today
I haven't given up on who I am inside, I keep hanging on
I'm not as weak as you think, I am actually very strong
you judge me and hate me before you even know me at all
you say shit about me and play with my mind, let me fall
but the thing that you don't know is I never let myself hit the ground
I pick myself up and you hurt me again and then once again I fall down
chorus
but I don't care, I don't give a damn
I will not change I will be who I am
you may not like it but thats too bad
try to take from me all I've ever had
but it's not gonna change the real me
being the bad guy does not come free
you can laugh, you can snicker and you can tease
are you listening, may I have your attention please
you can talk behind my back, calling me names
but what I don't know can't hurt me or cause me pain
so don't think that I lose sleep over all the things you do
I hate to dissapoint but the last thing on my mind is you
I am not gonna focus on the hurt you tried to cause me
I'm gonna turn on the tv and rather laugh at Bill Cosby
you don't like it, well there's nothing you can do about it
you can curse my name, call me a bitch, say a bunch of shit
chorus
will you ever be secure enough to be who you are
you can hurt me all you want but it won't get you far
cause all you are doing is trying to hide yourself from you
when being yourself no matter what is what you need to do
use me if you want to, do what you feel that you really need
it's not gonna kill me or break me it won't make me bleed
chorus
Much inner strength sings in your song... Nicely done... Brian...
ABSOLUTE FUCKING GENIUS! it truly is amazing. and you should definitely keep writing!
