They hope
I'm just pretending and giving
My power

Caving into pressure
I'm not living for them
I live for something better

I know
I'm not good enough
I'm not what they expected
I'm not what they want

But
Let me tell you what
I know who I am

So, just throw me out
For not fitting in
And I will
Stand my ground
And be an outcast

I've tried
To play nice
I don't want to fight

But
I won't be gray
When its all black and white

Cause what I believe
Is what makes me strong
If I don't belong
I'll hold onto love

Be happy with the little that you have. There are some people with nothing that still manage to smile.
