What exactly did you expect me to understand?
|
is that accepting me for who I am.
|
Cracking racist jokes expecting me not to be offended
|
'cause you consider yourself my friend.
|
So in my insecurity
|
I pretended to be amused by your bigotry
|
Came here when I was two years old
|
Grew up in a small town
|
people whispered behind my back
|
looking me up and down
|
I'm tired
|
always being abused a potential criminal
|
I'm constantly reminded of the difference between me and you
|
it doesn't hurt as much as it used too
|
so I've learned to respect myself
|
I've learned to trust again
|
And not to feel ashamed
|
Of where I'm from or who I am
|
All my life
|
I've been reminded that I don't belong here!
