Tired


I'm tired. Tired because im a girl I am told to be a certain way Why is that? Why cant i choose who i am? Im tired of being a white girl I am tired because everyone just thinks im a white girl But really i have latina running through my veins Im tired of being stuck in between multiple worlds In between being white, latina, and a girl I am critized for being all these things Im tired of proving to people that im latina That im not just a white girl That im not JUST A GIRL Why do i have to prove to people who i am? I fight like a latina, look like a white girl, and im a GIRL Im proud of who i am Why should people get in MY business? And tell me who i am? They ARE NOT me! Let me tell you something I am who I am. No one can tell me other wise Same goes for you So if you are tired Realise what you are tired from and sleep ON it! Then get up and realise that you shouldnt give a fuck! You are you and I am me We are individuals living on the same planet, breathing the same air, but living different lives So live YOUR life and- Stop being tired
