Poem
Society label me a misfit but i'm misguided Never had a father around to teach me how to be a man When you haven't walked in my shoes, how are you going to judge how I stand? Society call me a misfit, but the truth is I'm misguided I was never made to feel welcome in the world I was born in Parents alcoholics, who left me alone in the storm winds Passed around foster families, never made to feel like I belonged Just a baby without the knowledge of why my life was going wrong I was allowed to see my parents 6 times a year, if they turned up Social workers told me to cool down, like they couldn't understand why my anger burned up I hid behind a cap, Hoody, and trying to portray that I was Eminem His words made me feel invincible, where as my family never showed me anything that was genuine I was called weird, because I never stopped talking about a man I'd never met But every boy needs a male role model, and my brother and dad had left They were too busy drinking and taking heroin to pick up a phone to call me Sitting in the children's home, confused as to how they can fault me Got told by the age of 21 I'd be dead or in jail So they already put it in my head that I'll fail Society label me, call me names and judge what I'm wearing Clearly he's a wannabe gangsta, with the hoody, Caps, tattoos and earrings I don't like going out, and anxiety gives me a reason to not leave the house My own parents never believed in me, so I'm used to the doubt I've always stayed to myself, never been interested in gangs or violence But you'll think I am because of tattoos and the way I dress, when in reality I've never had any guidance Society label me a misfit but i'm misguided Never had a father around to teach me how to be a man When you haven't walked in my shoes, how are you going to judge how I stand? Society call me a misfit, but the truth is I'm misguided
