What They Think

i learned it this morning
that i'm known for being clumsy and slaky
no matter what i do i cannot change
their attitudes towards me
i ain't mad though
because i know few of them still love me
but i've made up my mind not to please anyone
but to live according to my own standards
and as a matter of fact i dont want to
fit in anyone's
