Stacy Day Poet I do not know?

I'Ll Make My Way

Ill amount to something 
Unlike you say 
You see my father
I’ll make my way

I’m not the same 
I’m different from you 
I know you cant see it
But it’s the truth

You insist I’m wrong 
And your always right
But I’ll be the one 
Who makes it day through night

Punish me how you please 
I’ll hold on longer
Yell and scream 
It makes me stronger

Hit me kick me 
My dreams will stay
I’ll hold them forever 
No matter what you say

You can tell me I’m stupid 
You can tell me I’m dumb 
But you can never make me forget
Where I’m from

I’ll accomplish so much 
My dreams will come true 
I can’t do it?
Well I guess I’ll show you

From the age of 
Four my dreams to sing 
I’ll make it happen 
And become something

You say I lie 
You say I’m lazy 
You throw me against the wall
And tell me I’m crazy

You scream and cuss
Punch and slap
I’ll forget it all 
When I wake from this nap

I open my eyes 
And see the ceiling 
In my left arm 
I have no feeling

I see my face
It’s a shame
I start to cry
But your to blame

I live my life
From day to day 
Exactly like this 
But it’s okay

I’ll amount to something 
Unlike you say 
You see my father 
I’ll make my own way
