It's funny how everyone wants you to be quiet when it comes to telling the truth
Ever since I came out of the womb, my truth was never accepted
Even now, in my adulthood, my reality is still not accepted by those that prefer to live in ignorance
I can not live in a lie and pretend like everything is heaven and just in my environment while everything is decaying around me
I can not dance while there are people suffering
I can not dance with the devil's disciples
People that wear a mask to cover up their genuine nature disgust me
The smell they give off is pungent
As I turned around I noticed I am the only one that can smell inhuman in front of me
As I try to tell everyone that there is someone inhuman in this room they began to notice the smell but they all turn toward me with malice in their eyes
They blame me for the smell
I blame myself for their anger toward me
I blame myself
I blame myself
Maybe I should have put on this mask that sits in my trash bin, maybe I should've lied to myself
It doesn't matter now what matters the most to me is my transformation it's going to take time
Lucky for me I got time to grow out of this old, small, and dense shell I've had for 3 years now.
