Missing Link
I was never supposed to fit in
Forcing me to view the world more expansively
No stereotype could box me in
Dictating a life I wasn't living
Who are you to tell me
I'm not who I am
I'm uniquely me
Created in inequity
No one can judge me
But the God whom created me
Must I fit into a role
Belated to clowns parading around in clothes already worn
Must I be a fool for a cause
A block I don't own
People who don't give a fuck whether I starve or mourn
Must I be whom you want me to be
To fit into a society
Pretending to be
