When you look at me
Who do you see
Who I am, or who you would like me to be

I am me, and that's all I want to be
Sure, I could be more like you
But then I wouldn't really be real

I do not meet your standards
I do not have the same mannors
But who I am is who I want to be
Free and crystal clear for all to see

So fuck your rules
Don't treat my like your mule
I will not bend to your desire
So you might as well just retire

I have my own dreams to follow
Unlike yours, my heart is not hollow
My love has no borders
I do not mind disorder

I welcome chaos and all that is unknown
Good, bad, with you or alone

So stop trying to change who I am
I do not want to be you or any of them
I just want to be set free
Are you really listening to my plea?

You've pounded in me enough times
All your choices and all these lies
Let me tell you I disagree
I'd prefer to have no guarantee

Now get off my case
Let me out of this horrible place
Live and let live
Learn how to love me, and how to forgive

But at the end you think that you're right
No matter how much I write
Or plead for acceptance
What is all comes down to is simple perception
