What I Realized


You can put me down with the insults

Like the words are thrown by a catapult

There will be days that you make me sad

And I’ll be in my room sitting there mad

But then I realize that I am awesome

Nothing can stop a machine like me

I work and make money

I have a mother that’s loving

Nothing can put me down

Not even the shoving

I know my future is bright

Just like at the end of every tunnel is light

I have a heart of gold

I am always hot even when it’s cold

I can make anyone smile

And it won’t take a while

Only because I am awesome
