Me Is Who I Need To Learn To Be

Never heard
And only seen
As the lie
They claim to see
Living behind

My tired eyes
I've had enough

But can't give up
Beaten down
Pushed around

Soul thats shattered
Heart that's torn
I keep going

But not sure

What even for
Anymore 
So sad and lonely
Wishing someone
Would hear me

Or see the truth

Of the girl within
Hiding inside me 

Stigmatized
And stereotyped

Left to wallow

In my own fears
Given to me

By those
Who never
Even bothered

To get to
Know me
I will rise up
I will find me
Find my purpose

Make a difference
Prove the haters wrong

I am not their
Same old song

I am me

And it's about time

That's what I
Learned how to be
