THE CRY OF AN (IL)LEGAL CHILD
Trapped in my own cell,
I hold the key but I'd rather stay inside,
coz if I come out,
I know they gon judge me.
They expect me to be perfect,
but who said who I am is not perfect,
wish they could change their mindset, understand and accept who I am.
I wanna be legal,
I wanna be free,
I don't wanna hide anymore,
but I'd rather stay inside,
where it's safe,
safe from all the judgment,
all the stigma,
I don't want them to look at me,
like I'm an outcast.
I just wanna be me,
I'm afraid of what they'll say,
wish I didn't care,
but I do,
I wanna make them happy,
but what about me,
will I ever be happy?
They think who I am is wrong,
to them they're right,
I don't really blame them,
it's a product of how they were raised,
and I'm so scared that they'll never change.
I don't wanna fight,
I just want my right,
coz it's my life,
and they don't get to decide,
I just want them to accept me
I didn't choose to be this way.
But if they'll judge me,
and treat me like I'm nothing,
then I'll just go my way,
far away,
where nobody knows my name,
and I'll finally be free,
I'll be me,
so help me God,
coz only you know my fate.
