Different
He walks different from how you do
 Your steps are perfect and his, well their okay
 Sometimes he trips here and there
 But you, you never miss a step
 He has a feeling that he will be falling sometime tomorrow maybe during lunch
 So when you see him with your gang of friends 
 Don’t give him a hand 
 Look at him and laugh every time and just walk pass.
 She talks different from how you do 
 Her English is flawless 
 That girl’s speaking ability is nothing compared to yours 
 Her first language is stupid because you say that every day
 When the teacher calls on her in class because she knows the answer 
 Don’t be sorry when you and your friends bust out laughing in her face 
 She’s been in this country for a year and should be able to talk fluently by now.
 They dress different from how you do
 Their jeans are not ironed every morning like yours 
 Take a photo of their terrible fashion and make sure everybody sees 
 For now they shouldn’t don’t mind the heart bruising jokes 
 Keep saying how each one of them needs to get rid of those worn out shoes 
 And how they look like a group of homeless people  
 Maybe they are 
 But you never asked 
 We think, we know!
 That we may walk talk and dress differently 
 From how you do but listen to the reality 
 Mentally and physically we’re stronger than ever 
 What you say and what you do has less affect on us today 
 Some people are victims of something that has no cure 
 But have access to treatment which helps them endure.
