Can't Be True

In a world of norms, I feel like an alien
A puzzle piece that don't fit in
Try to squeeze in, but I'm always feelin'
Like I'm not where I'm meant to begin

I walk the streets with fear in my eyes
Dreading the looks, the stares and the lies
People whisper, they point and they jeer
Their words like daggers, cutting me so clear

They say I'm just confused that I'm lost in a maze
That I'm not who I say I am that I'm living in a haze
But I know who I am deep down inside
And I won't let them tell me otherwise

I'll keep fighting, I'll keep on strong
Even if it takes all night long
I'll show them the truth that I'm not wrong
I'll be me, and I'll be proud, and they'll all see
That I can't be true to who I'm not meant to be

They say I'm just confused that I'm lost in a maze
That I'm not who I say I am that I'm living in a haze
But I know who I am deep down inside
And I won't let them tell me otherwise

I'll keep fighting, I'll keep on strong
Even if it takes all night long
I'll show them the truth that I'm not wrong
I'll be me, and I'll be proud, and they'll all see
That I can't be true to who I'm not meant to be

They say I'm just confused that I'm lost in a maze
That I'm not who I say I am that I'm living in a haze
But I know who I am deep down inside
And I won't let them tell me otherwise

I'm not asking for much, just a little respect
To be seen for who I am, not who they expect
I'm tired of hiding, tired of the pain
I just want to live my life without the rain
