I'm not the brightest or the best

I don't always pass every test

Life throws my way

But I don't let what other people say

Bring me down

I lift my head up

Because I am proud

I am everything I want to be

You can't define me

I am not a label

I am not a hashtag

Or a number of "likes"

I'm not some flashback

That you just care about sometimes

I am not my height or weight

I am not a number, those are for dates

Quit calling me out on my mistakes

Some people take their lives because of a name

Don't act like this is just a game

It's a label verses life

A rude remark against a knife

Here's one thing everyone knows

But they hardly understand

Labels, are for clothes

Not for a woman or a man
