I Am Me

I am the daughter kicked out of home
I'm the son that sits at school alone
I'm the woman you see fit to kill
I'm the man who gets assaulted at will
I'm the lady wishing she was a man
I'm the guy dressing like a woman can
I'm the "dyke" who no longer has a career
I'm the "fag" that lives in constant fear
I am the man in stilettos at night
I'm the boy fleeing for his life
I'm the one who loves her own best friend
I'm the girl who fucks everything I can
I am the father without her son
I'm the "queer" that sleeps with her friends for fun
I am the one without a faith
I'm the girl who watched her "boyfriend" get raped
I'm the boy outcast by family
I'm the one that's laughed at constantly
I'm the girl with my head held down low
I'm the boy afraid to go out alone
I'm the woman that rides a motorbike
I'm the one they call a "dyke"
If I had a choice would I be straight?
And not put up with my homophobic fate?
If I hand a chance would I choose your side?
Of course not because I have my PRIDE!
