I'M Not

I'm not happy because you made me
I'm happy because you didn't
 
I'm not sexy because you called me beautiful
I'm sexy because I was born this way

I'm not itelligent because you sent me to school
I just chose not to be stupid

I'm sure as hell isn't like you
because I'm wiser and I'm different
