I Am


I am

I was the kid who you used to make fun off

I was the kid who you called nerd because he choose to read instead of play football

I was the kid who you got mad at when I made a 100 when you did bad

I was the kid who was picked last for kickball

I was the kid you threw slangs at because I was a late bloomer

I was the kid who you called gay because I liked theatre

I was the kid you threw papers at during class

I wasthe kid who you made cry himself to sleep some nights

I was

I am the kid who got over it

I am the kid who you made tough

I am the kid whos work payed off

I am the kid who is 8th in our class while you are in the hundreds

I am the kid who overcame your bullying

I am

I will be above you

I will be the guy remebering all this when you put in an application to work for me

I will be the guy to still hire you

I will be your boss

I will be the guy who makes you wonder why I would give you a job after all you did

I will be the guy who forgives

I was the kid who used to make fun off

I am the man who got over it
