You say I'm not enough
You say my life isn't rough
You can hear it in how I speak
How I dress and basically

Everything about me
In my head I guess you can see
Every little thing that I'm feeling
Every fiber of my being!

I'm a walking contradiction
You don't get my existence
You say it's troubling
My identity

You're facing this confliction
I'm not what you envision
When you hear me speak
And claim my identity

Really wish it meant a thing
And that's whether you think I pass
Because it didn't really matter to the cop that pulled me over
With one intention and that's to harass
Or when I nearly got disowned
Your opinion couldn't help that mess
Deadass I nearly lost it all because somebody sent my mom
A picture of me in a black and white dress

I'm a walking contradiction
You don't get my existence
You say it's troubling
My identity

You're facing this confliction
I'm not what you envision
When you hear me speak
And claim my identity

I shouldn't have to prove myself
Especially to the likes of you
I shouldn't have to prove myself
Just because you need to get a damn clue
I shouldn't have to prove myself
Within my own community
I shouldn't have to prove myself
To the worst of all that I have ever seen
I shouldn't have to prove myself
I shouldn't have to prove myself
I shouldn't have to prove myself
I shouldn't have to prove myself
No!
"Oh God"
