Names Can Change

Some change remain Some whence simply a never change Perhaps of people who became Shall no one remember my name? Am I a someone, named to be? That no one who everyone calls me by Perhaps a place I haven’t been to see Too eager as always to question just why Have I a name I know? Cause everyone seem to call me by it A one name for the lifetime I owe Yet a name... barely a whisper to even slip Given by someone and happen to be Yet an identity stays for whoever you are We are persons judge by majority who'll see Does it even matter cause everyone has a story so far No one it seems... can remember how to change Simply who we emerge from who we once remain Yet... never we knew who we became To only hope someday, someone will remember your name
