"I rather be hated for who I am, then lived for who I'm not"


take a look at me and try to define,
a life so weird its rightfully mine,
such a different storyline,
the mistakes I've made because of stupid lies,
the pain takes place deep inside, try to come clean as i sit here and just cry,
'cause bad things go worse when your best friends pick sides, lovers disappears in a blink of an eye,
and nightmares take place you feel like your gonna die.
Follow me and you will see,
there's another side to everything, I know its outrageous as it seems, once I dreamt a crazy dream,
I had the answers and that was the key. but once like before,
I'm walking out the door,
happiness sinks to the bottom of my core,
I didn't want this anymore,
my heart is torn,
through life I thought Id just soar.

All the s*** I've done I try to rewind,
all the lies and mistakes I have yet to find,
then I just sigh,
I'm just one of a kind.
