Why Can't I Just Be Me?
September 17, 2013
Why Can’t I Just Be Me?
Why can’t i just be me?
Populars,posses, groups and cliques,
Why can’t they just let me be?
They pull you in and then they leave
Can’t you see it’s all a trick?
Why can’t I just be me?
I want to be an outcast can’t you see?
If you can’t then so be it
Why can’t they just let me be?
You bully others horribly
You pick,tease, laugh, and hit
Why can’t I just be me?
I don’t want to be you, you’re all so mean
I’m the better person and that is it
Why can’t I just be me?
But I’m not afraid of you, can’t you see?
You can tease me all you want but i don’t like any of you one bit
Why can’t I just be me?
Why can’t they just let me be?
