Proud

We scream and we shout yet you choose not to hear The words from our mouths those that you fear Your darling child holds a secret inside One that you cannot ignore or hide Falling from the pack failed to conform Different from everyone else I'M outside the norm But what is the norm but a copy of one I choose to live life not afraid to be shone I'm PROUD of who I am And PROUD of who I'll be A PROUD member of the gay society Your words do not hurt me But your ignorance does Failing to grasp the world as it is And not as it was You can choose to not accept me That is your choice Who i m was made by GOD And not by my choice
