I am
I am tired of hiding who I am
Maybe no one will ever understand
I have often felt like I'm in solitude
Born to stand apart
Not out of vanity
I don't think I'm better than any woman or man
The feeling of standing out
I accept who I am
I've felt rejection sting
Yet I still move forward and grin and sing
Some have tried to make me fit into their mold
That's just not how I am and it made me feel cold
And maybe I was misunderstood
But I'm confident in who I am
I don't care if I'm left in barren lands
Because in the end I've accepted all I am
