So What
Life hurts
It sneaks up on you like a raging bee in a dark alley
When you try to be yourself but everyone in your family laughs
Because your hair is curly
Constantly hearing comb your hair or your going out like that
I thought family is supposed to be there for and encourage you to be you
Not look at you with bulging eyes
I will be me no matter what
And all the other girls like me should also say
SO WHAT!
