Things happen in life 

changes happens

in the end this shapes you 

challenges are like checkpoints 

in my case it was my body

dealing with it for years 

all i could do was 

sit in my own tears always picked on 

so if you asked where I belong if I was a word in the dictionary

I would be the word "contradictive"

I look for boths side of an argument 

I'm both a jock and a geek 

two different things 

much like me 

very different in many ways 

I am both dumb and smart 

but this makes me 

I am not afraid to admit it 

Because I love who I have become 

and thats the way it should be

not just for me

but for everyone 

loving yourself is necessary 

before you can love another

I learned this the hard way

along with most things in my life

Raised to be sucessful in life

never to quit

never to back down from a challenge

never admit defeat 

thats who i am

I am mexican 

and I am proud of my race 

thats the kind of person I am 

All these qualities make me

but do i hate some 

the answer is 

of course

one thing I do not like 

is my shyness 

but its a part of me

thats who I am 

and I am happy that 

this is who I became.
