I Know
I was once you
You just don't know it
Feeling all this pain inside
Too much pride to show it
No sign of weakness
A tough look on your face
They'll show you respect
They'll know your place
No one thought you were pretty
No one thought you were great
You were the "lame" girl they picked on
You were too overweight
Let them pick on you and bring you down
You have a beautiful soul, dont let them see you frown
Remember that children are cruel
Things are temporary, don't be their fool
