I Am ...

I am a brilliant girl With a desire to achieve People tell me things And just put me down The past is the past, but They use it against me I was born in a circle of love But abandoned from blood I am a girl with power To make it out there I have been lied to, been deceived And left heart broken I am what I am, And I do what I do I am trying to fight this battle Against stress and anxiety People can control my life Put words in my mouth Break my heart, and put me down But I am a girl with a true Desire to pursue my dreams Despite those who despise me
