Tired
I am tired of always being the centre of all blames
I am tired of being raged upon for things that I do not control
I am tired being an alien in a place that was supposed to feel like home
Feelings confused about why things doesn't stay the same
I am tired of saying sorry for things I didn't even know
I am tired of being dismissed when I defend myself
I am tired of always being the bad guy in every story line
When you say no, then you're guilty
You keep quiet,then you are not listening
You talk back, then you weren't raised right
You speak out ,then you are insulting
Anything and everything you do, you are wrong
Whatever you say, it's not the right thing
When then, Will I be able to say my piece
When...
When I am old and what I say is only an adage
When time too, becomes something I chase
But when we give them the same meal, they can't can't swallow with the same taste.
When did the truth become a crime
When did our beliefs became defiance
How then can we change it;
The system that bullies the young for being different
The law that still wants to control our women
The truth is you too are unfair
You still want us blind
But you are the one blind
You are chained to the same thing that was your downfall and you still defend it
You think that is the only way to do it because thats what you were taught
But we are busy to even discuss how wrong you are
Too busy trying to change the wrongs, to set a bar
The bar of truth and one we that reveals
The truth is we are strong and we will set the standards to our ways
We will change the plan and make it better than you showed us
We are and we will be the generation that made the change become the ''way".
Thank you
