SO WHAT?! I AM Different!!!


I AM different, because

I like music the majority doesn't listen to.

I don't follow what everyone else does

and I'm not easily told what to do.

 

      People state that I do not act like "my race".

what does that even mean?

Just because I speak with "grace"

and the words that come out of my mouth are "clean"?

 

I plan on bieng multiingual.

Korean and spanish is the goal.

My dreams are to high to reach, so I'm told.

However, I WILL be going from Mexico all the way to Seoul.

 

There were certain events in my life that shaped me to be who I am.

Issues, I want to condemn.

To overcome the obstacles thrown at me  will be my final exam.

I've already conquered  the struggles i've been in.

 

"Why so serious?"

What an infamous question!

I have a dream, may God be my witness.

Must I go through this again?!

 

The plan isn't easy

Highschool, college, then the workforce

Isn't it dreamy?!

Don't you see that education is the source??

 

I AM  different  that is my prefered term.

Go ahead and describe me wih it and i will just confirm.
