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
