the way i am ;; lyrics why is it so hard for them to accept me how i am what's so wrong with me right now that they can't even chill out and let me be me...? what's wrong if i don't like who i should what does it matter if i'm different from at birth i am who i say i am, why should you decide what gender and who i like is right just let me be, the way i am i make the choice, it's me not you just leave me be, just how i am why is it so hard to accept i'm someone new being trans isn't a crime, or being who you feel just because i'm gay or les i still am just as real i'm a human like any other, with my own identity it's not even that different from a personality just let me be, the way i am i make the choice, it's me not you just leave me be, just how i am why is it so hard to accept i'm someone new i shouldn't be who you think i should be things aren't always as they seem don't treat me different because i'm me because i'm still a person you should see just let me be, the way i am i make the choice, it's me not you just leave me be, just how i am why is it so hard to accept i'm someone new non binary, gender fluid, i am not the norm no matter the pressure i will never conform inter, omni, questioning or queer i'll ignore their whispers and sneers just let me be, the way i am i make the choice, it's me not you just leave me be, just how i am why is it so hard to accept i'm someone new oh, accept that i'm the way i am and thats how i was intended it doesn't matter if i'm bi or ace demi, poly, pan or just straight don't try to fit me in a cage of stereotypes from another age i can love someone and still be gray don't even try to put me in it i won't just give in, i won't just sit in the cage where i will never fit let the feelings flow out like a dam (breaks) i'm proud to be the way i am (i'm proud...) to be the way i am. - i had so much fun writing this, i honestly really enjoyed making this :) kicking off pride month?? yayy haha, i tried to include as many identities as i could but probably missed quite a lot, which i'm sorry for :( but i hope even just one person related to this song because then i did something right at least... lol (if there's any identity that i missed, feel free to tell me haha)
