Like a black speck on a white paper.
Like a lint of grass on the crack of a sidewalk.
Like a small ant on a tall ceiling.
I am unnoticed.
A raindrop from a darken sky,
I am unnoticed.
I sting like a bee,
but speak like a fly.
I am unnoticed,
unnoticed is what defines me,
but unnoticed is not what I want to be.

If I could soar like a bird,
roar like a lion,
leap like a frog.
Nothing will ever,
ever defeat me.
