This is My Life

You say you accept all with love, You hypocrite, you say that, then turn around and say my feelings arn't legit.

Who are you to try and make me what you want me to be? I will be what I want, and i want to be me.

Stop gossiping about my life, that's the student's job, and don't tell me to sit still if i'm jamming out and my head wants to bob.

Stop preaching to the choir, it's the pew that needs the saving, and if my situation looks dire, just walk away and start praying.

For you see i'm going to be me, myself, and I. If you have a problem with that, well you can go die

And while were on the subject, if you see me crying, don't ask what's wrong, it's just my soul dying

All in all, it's really quiet simple, read the writing on the wall, and realize this isn't your temple

So don't tell me what to do, and don't tell me what to say, this is my life, and i'll live it, my way
