Give Me Back My Identity

Give back my identity, I can not be anyone but me Can't you see, I am lost without me Words are all I know, how to write It's my birthright I wasn't born clever or bright All I know, is words and how to write Pen and paper Brings me closer to the light Here I feel confident and bright My soul feels free and light Pen and paper Gives me the confidants too write Here I am free to express all I have to write Give me back my identity, please I am on my bending knees Begging you, please Give me back my identity, For words are all I know, how to write.
