Born for This

I strive to not be conformed.

I've got scars I've hidden, 

and faced the scorn of all my lies, 

but never cried. 

Know Why? Cause I was born for this. 

 

They yell in my face, 

call me a disgrace 

" you're out of your element" " stay in your place!". 

Yet, I stand calm at the disrespect I face. 

Know why? Cause I was born for this. 

 

They didn't know, about the prayers.

It never showed the inner chaos. 

Still, I push and silence the nay-sayers. 

Know why? Cause I was born for this.
