I feel alone ,as if  I'm on my own

i wish i had somebody to treat me like a queen

they only worship girls from TV screens

While I use words they've never heard

 

I'm a nerd they say , but  I  know that can't compete with me

I'm smart I know I am , but I don't feel that way

I cant relate to the other girls 

I read books as they sing the hooks of every song I don't know

how can I grow if all they do is tear me down

make me feel as if  I'm a clown , always a frown on my face

my life  is a pitiful waste

 

Why god must u make me live through this pain

every day coming home mentally abused and drained 

tears pouring down my face like an endless rain 

but a drought of happiness this world gives me 

what a this sick game

 

I just want all this to end 

poverty serpentines through the city

brother Killing brother 

neighbors taking pity

why let me live through this ,

when  I'm going to have to suffer and die like the rest of them
