I am nothing.

I am something.

I am everything

that people say.

I am quiet.

I am loud.

I am the annoyance

people crave.

I was such a pushover,

but no longer do I behave.

I live my way

and now I do the pushing.

They can chain me but they can't break me.

I've become a nothing they can't claim.

They can abuse me and they can bruise me

but they can never insult in my name.

I am what they call an overcomer.

I am what they call a fighter.

I am what they call trouble.

I am what they call slain.
