The Stereotypes Broken
They call me a nerd because I take AP courses.
After school I attend ballet lessons.
They call me Goth because I wear black.
After school I sit in my pink room.
They call me popular because I cheer,
After school I sit alone.
They call me a bimbo because I'm blonde,
After school I work on my calculus homework.
They tell me I can not be a doctor because I am a women,
Today I'm in my cap and gown receiving my degree.
They tell me I'm messy because I'm a man,
There isn't one dirty dish in my sink.
They call me greedy because I'm Jewish,
I donate money to charity all the time.
They call me a rebel because I'm a teenager,
I attend church every Sunday.
Stereotypes hurt and aren't true,
The only one who can stop them is you.
