"What is wrong with you?"
"Why can't you forget everything they did?"
"Why are you so stupid?"
"You'll never get anywhere"
Thoughts in my head that spin
Around and around again
I put myself down more than anyone
But am I the one to blame?
Labels, names, backstabbing
The threat of the world today
Is that we all have something wrong...
People talk about God
An how He made us all who we are
For a reason
But we still go on this way
Different beliefs, different backgrounds
So many damn excuses
But we've all done it once before
We crave perfection
We want to be accepted
And why do I get sucked into this?
I know perfect doesn't exist
And I know I'm fine the way I am
I believe I have a purpose
All that's there, in my mind
But one little word
One little damn laugh
Could change that for a long time
And it's not my fault
It's them
And down I go even further
And just when I start to smile
I get knocked down
It's like they hate my confidence
They can't stand my happiness
And why is that?
Because they don't have any
It's true what they say
They are jealous
They want what you have
Because we all seem to want
What we can't have
I could go on and on
About the problems today
But it's just this thing called "society"
It's just the human way
So keep smiling
Keep laughing with the people you love
Forget the ones who can't accept you
Who can't be happy with who you are
And who they are
Never let someone bring you so far down
That you forget who you are
Because you are all you've got
