I’m tired…
Of being called
An “Overachiever”
A “Try hard”
A “Show off”
I’m tired of the name calling
Because I achieve
I work hard
I show my talents
I am called these things
Let me tell you something…
I’m tired of it
“Overachiever”
And “Try hard”
And “Show off”
Play over and over again
In my head
And I think
Do I change?
Guess what?
I’m still tired
Of overthinking these names
That I am called
Will it ever end?
Why am I called these things?
Because I try
And put effort in
And work for what I want
I don’t know
I may never know
But, I want it to end
So, I’ve decided…
To embrace it
I will show
My hard work ethic to achieve
My determination to try
My talent
To the people around me
I will stand up to
“Overachiever”
“Try hard”
“Show off”
Maybe…
I won’t be so tired
If I embrace it
If you embrace it,
