Write It In Your Own Words

Never Think Your Style Isn't Good Enough

It Scares People When You're Different

It Scares Folks

They Don't Know How To Treat It

Not Accepted

For Being You

Being Different Puts A Bad Taste In Their Mouth

Be Like Everybody Else?

Why?

You Feel

Not The Same As Anyone

But They'll Force You

Ten Toes Isn't A Burden

The World Is A Place

For You To Be Yourself

At Least

I Thought

Rules To Life?

Where's The Book?

Why Understand The Book

When You Can Look

Outside For Yourself

Learn As You Go

Find New Habits

Only You Can Say No

Fitting In Was Never Part Of The Plan

You Miss Out You Miss Out

The Only Way I Understand

Lead With Love

And Keep It Pushing

They Don't Want You To Be Different

Break The Cycle

And Stop Wishing

You're Intuition

Is Already Given

Always Understand Common Sense

It's Always Somebody Ready To Flood

Your Vision

With Their Thoughts

I'm Supposed To Switch My Mindset

To Yours?

They Think You Don't Know Things

Course I Don't Know Everything

I've Got My Ways

You Got Yours

Accept That?

Ah But You're Different

They Don't Feel Comfortable

Listening To Something They Wouldn't Say

You Do Though

See Where I'm Going?

You Have Ways That Work For You

You Understand Everybody Has Their On Way

Your Way Gets Downplayed

I Wonder Why?

Write It In Your Own Words

Ignore The Slurs

We As People Can Be Different

It Comes Off As Disrespect

But Why?

I've Learned This Since I Was Young

It Doesn't Matter You HAVE

To Learn Our Way

Why Not Mines?

Everybody Has Their Own Brain

Yet They Want You To Learn Theirs

Imprinted

Solidified

It's Always A No To Own

And Yes To Something Already Done

You Listening?

Firmly Though?

Write It In Your Own Words

Just Because It looks Different

Doesn't Mean It's Wrong

The Understanding Is Always First

1+1 Is Always 2

But So Is 5-3

See The Difference?

Not The Same Format

But You Still Get The Same Answer

Did I Lose You?

You're Not Always Right

But You're Never Always Wrong

Write It In Your Words

Being Different Has It's Pros

But Always Has Cons

Appreciate It

For Whom Doesn't Understand

Will Always Be A Product Of The Wrong Plan.
