Who I'm meant to be
Looking at your flat chest
Makes me feel nothing but unblessed
Yes, you have the power and you know it
But will you use it wisely or just throw it
I stare at your face
I stare at your arms
Tell me is it my fault
That I wasn't born a man
I'm so jealous
And you don't see why
Making every girl stare
When you don't even try
I have to hide my body
I have to make my voice deeper
Even walk a certain way
And people still don't see the difference
"You're the best son I could ask for"
I wish I'd hear those words as well
Instead I get reminded daily
How daddy's little princess got killed by someone like myself
I hope is just a phase
As I hate hurting my mum
She seems to be there for me
When my decisions don't aim at her heart
She was good for a while
Told me what every mom would say
"Be whoever you want, not who they expect"
Well I did just that but people don't respect me
And what if they will when thinking I overslept
But can't arise me
