Burden on Earth

I asked everyone around me "What am I?"

Some called me 'mad' while some 'burden on Earth'

I thought I'm dead weight who occupies some space

Or maybe some failed experiment of human race

They called me different because they all were same

You've no idea from where i came

From valley of darkness where pain and misery flows

Something much worse than a black hole

You can call me a dead weight, at least

I'm not like you, someone who believes in fate

I'll do what my idols did, their ideas - I'll preserve 

"Yes I'm gonna put a dent in the universe"

But what about these constant taunts, I fight

Some of them, haunts me in the night

I wake up everyday to do something different

But you know,  world - follows the same routine

I know i talk like a man, but I'm just another teen

Just when i was about to die and leave this world

I realized - You can't make a dent in the universe

"Without being burden on Earth"
