Protected Power

People say I’m crazy

I say I’m unique

People say I’m psycho

Because of how I speak

They say that I have problems

And need an institution

They say that I’m irrational

I offer resolutions

They say I play the victim

I’m using their helping hand

But didn’t you just say I had all these issues

I don’t quite understand.

You give me all these labels

None of them are fully true

And when I start to seek support

You criticise me for that too.

Before you projected your insecurities

Onto me, I was just fine

I didn’t need any help

Those were your problems not mine

So I take back my identity

And all my power you stole

Go back to my truest self

The person in my soul

You should take the time

To focus your energy on yourself

Rather than try to steal others

And if needed ask for help.
