I'm Glad

Deci Hernandez

I would hate to have been Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
I would hate to be a doctor
I would hate to have been born white black to have been born female  I would hate it if I were born in the 50 60 70 or 90's
I would hate to be a NFL player
I would hate to be a billionaire
I would hate to be a hip-hop artist
I would hate to be a non-believer
I'm glad that i am who i am
Always changing
I'm glad that God calls himself 'I AM WHO I AM'
Never changing
