Black Sheep

Black sheep, black sheep
Oh wait, that's me!
I lived my life wrong,
Apparently you see.

I did everything right,
But my mouth was too much.
Worked hard to be proud,
But it was just wasn't enough.

I was unwanted, unloved
No matter how much I tried.
Shoulders back, eyes faced front
No one saw how I cried.

To the world things were fine,
I was confident and strong.
But in my heart and inside,
They got it so wrong.

It took a long time
To find strength of my own.
But once I found that,
I didn't need them, I was grown.

So, to those who have struggled,
Rejected and used.
I'm hear to tell you,
They don't have a clue.
