People see my tail
and think I'm a fail!
They see my Hatchet-man
and call me a Juggaho fan!
They see me get angry
and think it's funny!
They hear my dreams,
and say I'll never succeed!
I'm not meant to lead!
I can barely lead myself.
I'm different.
It's how I vent,
my frustration,
and my admiration!
I can't help it
if i don't seem to fit
in this world of yours!
I'm covered in soars!
where your words have hit!
But I've decided I won't just sit,
and take it anymore!
I'm strengthening my core,
so that I can be me,
and so that I,
can be free!
