An Individual

I'm different in your eyes, negativity does arise

Hey stop! Your thoughts do change over time

Hipsters were different, but now they're the trend,

Because they're so common now, society comprehends

But you can't comprehend my accent or my style,

My tracksuit or my smil, Cause to you they're just vile, well

There's no pleasing you, I don't even try

With the green in my hair, and those upbeat collars

I've been prepared for the confusion emanating,

From your slumped-down shoulders

Well, difference is individuality,

Yeah, difference is genius mentality

Yeah, difference is individuality

You laugh 'cause I'm different, I laugh 'cause you're all the same

And now, stare, I know you quite don't get it

You mistake my sarcasm for rudeness and presence

But it 'aint me who's just a face in the hall,

Another leaf in fall, a prize in a carnival stall

Yet, I throw the balls and knock down all the cans

And win your judging face to hold right in my hands,

And remember you only while I'm in bed,

But throw out all those thoughts from my resting head

Plus I can't sleep, all I do is wonder and lay,

And think about the next day, insomnia comes into play

And I replace the monster in my bed with a new pair of Toms

And I hang up a poster I got from my spiritual mom

Saying 'HOPE' and read it before the end,

As I put on those jeans that do need a mend

And read the morning paper, grab my old skater'

And ride down the slope that was once a crater

 Well, difference is individuality,

Yeah, difference is genius mentality

Yeah, difference is individuality

You laugh 'cause I'm different, I laugh 'cause you're all the same

And now, even after it all,

You still think my platform shoes' a little too tall

And my DIY dreamcatcher a little too much

But it doesn't really matter, I think it's just enough

And your doughnuts are my marshmallow fluff

I have a pet turtle, while your's are just stuffed

'Yolo' your excuse for burning your skin,

And you have the nerve to call me emo,

And yes I still watch Up and Finding Nemo

While you watch movies with Robert De Niro

And I sing at the most inappropriate times, 

And try to talk in only riddles and rhymes

So if you can't handle it, go to the back of the line,

And talk your bullsh^t at the 'I don't care' sign

Because frankly, I'm me, not a copycat other

I don't need your compliments, I've got enough from my mother

Like me? Great! Don't? Even better...

I'm not gonna cry over a little rainy weather

I'll await the rainbow, or the 'yet to come' snow

And dance in the present rain, giving you all a show

So enough's enough, I'm not bluffin'

I'm the cupcake here, while you're just a muffin!

Well, difference is individuality,

Yeah, difference is genius mentality

Yeah, difference is individuality

You laugh 'cause I'm different, I laugh 'cause you're all the same!
