No one is special
We are a bit special as the people say,
But they don't mean it in an alluring way,
With the same set of eyes, four limbs and a heart,
They'll still find a way to separate us apart.
"By the looks of it you look normal"
As if a complement, they try to be informal,
Talking bout who they like and what they're into
But loathe us when we talk what we've been through.
Like do we smell bad or walk in a different way
Or if we irritate you whenever we say
"Let a girl be a man and a man be gay"
Just let us be, and we'll both have a better day.
Well, i know i haven't sinned for i have pride,
Our lives aren't rainbows, we've also cried,
Is it all even worth of being ashamed,
Is it us or the god to be blamed?
I won't mould or fold or stretch I'll break
I won't change myself for your sake
The god has shaped and carved our fate
And he makes masterpieces, never mistakes.
No matter how fat, short, thin, or tall,
I'll make it clear, once and for all.
I'm not a white patch or a black spot
Its not a curse that i have got,
Its your mind that rots in an empty vessel
And if you're 'Normal', then no ones special.
