Am I Not The Same?
April 29, 2010
Am I not the same?
Two arms, two legs, one head
So just call me by my name.
Then where to place the blame?
The ones who have not said
Am I not the same?
My name is not to maim
With words that cut me dead
So just call me by my name
Are you not so tame?
To see how similar we tread
Am I not the same?
I am a person, not to claim
But your words cut deep and I have bled
So just call me by my name
Why must you think that this is a game?
Does my real name fill you with dread?
Am I not the same?
So just call me by my name
