Am the One You Picked On

Dont you recognise me?
am the one
the one
you called names
the one whose weight 
you made fun of
am the one who was not 
good enough to be your 
friend

am the one whose colour  
was a shame to you
am the same person
the only difference is i 
dont care what you think 
any more
i know who i am
its not what you say i am
