Black Sheep
When you walk in the room and feel the air speaking to you in silence
Due to your walk
Even when speaking to yourself one will not notice
For they will only notice the fall over a banana peel
Walk with your head up, this is told
For is one, so bold to look into their eyes
While they shame your birth
For when the lights are on
I walk in darkness
For when the lights are off
I walk into the light
For a black sheep is all they see
When the singing begins
I am forever their sin
