Just because I’m Asian

Doesn’t mean I’m smart

Doesn’t mean I can be good

And doesn’t mean that everything I do is perfect

Just because I’m Asian

Doesn’t mean my life is perfect

Doesn’t mean I love my life

Doesn’t mean I can keep up with time

Just because I’m Asian

Doesn’t mean I find happiness in life

Doesn’t mean I can make a difference

Doesn’t mean I can be a role model

Why am I always compared to others

Why does time always ruin everything

Why must I understand everything

Why can’t I break free

I’m just another dark soul trapped in an angel
