Who I Am?
Letme tell you the unfiltered version of myself
Screw society's standards
Screw the government
Screw dollar signs getting in the way of my education.
I'm one pissed off chick.
I may not be insta famous
or have huge tits
or be a size zero
but screw those standards they want me to live up to.
Yes I am ok with being invisible yall.
Yeah I ain't pretty
I aint't that smart either.
But I'm a chick who is always the authentic version
of myself.
I'll tell ya straight up.
I'm not scared to speak my mind
I'm not scared to call you out
I don't have a filter on what I say
or what I wear.
The real me is all the time
and the real me is pissed.
I'm pissed how I'm seen as
a number.
In school, I'm ranked as 233
in clothes, I'm a size 2
in SAT scores, I'm 1470.
Can't yall see I am so much more that that?
I'm one determined little bad ass
Yeah I make poop load of mistakes
and may not have the highest GPA,
but I know what I want in my life
and I ain't planning to stop.
What's the authentic side of me?
Heck if I know. All I do know is
this homegirl needs to get her butt into the college of her dreams.
