Dont Hate Im Just Being Me

Don’t Hate
	I’m just being me


From the tips of the strands of my hair
And the smile in my alluring eyes
Don’t hate, I’m just being me

And when I walk with my head held high
With every step and shakes in my curved thighs
Don’t hate, I’m just being me

Or how about when I’m not feeling too good
And I may come off heavy and strong
Don’t hate I’m just being me

Like sometimes when things are crazy and disarrayed
But I scratch and claw to get everything straight
Don’t hate I’m just being me 

Even when I’m voicing my opinion 
And it is important to me because I’m on a mission
Don’t hate I’m just being me

Or when I choose to do what you are too afraid to do
And my motto is you have nothing to loose
Don’t hate I’m just being me

And having the courage to move forward
After vicious storms were brought onward
Don’t hate I’m just being me

This is hot and soooo true! People hate on you just simply being you because they can't be themselves.
