Who am I supposed to be 

     if I can't act myself around you?

How am I supposed to think

     if my thoughts are said to be wrong?

What am I supposed to say 

     without my feelings getting hurt by you?

How can I state my opinion

     without starting a debate?

 

Must you always find a flaw?

     whether it be what I say

          or feel

               or think

Pray to change. It is just a phase

    Gotta change your way of thinking. It's negative.

          Change, change, change

is all I hear from you.

 

Change how?

This is who I am. 

Do you not like what I have grown up to be?

     Finally comfortable showing you the real me.

 

Guess I should return to pretending.
