Not Just a Girl is about why I sometimes feel angry and scared.
People treat me different because I'm a girl.
People make fun of how I dress.
How I act.
How I learn.
How I talk.
And who I am.
I'm not them and they’re not me
And eventually they’ll see
That I’m not coming back cause they called my name.
When they call my name
I won't come running
Cause I'm not the same
The blame.
I feel angry when people blame me for something
I didn't do.
When they say
What I say
Isn't true.
I feel angry when someone imitates me.
Impersonates my voice.
My character.
My life.
My clothes.
And my actions.
Imposters.
That's what they are.
I feel angry when people assume I don't listen.
That just because
I am quiet
I don't care
Cause I do
I dare.
I feel angry when I think I'm not enough.
When I know what I do
Won't reach the standard
I have set for myself.
I feel angry that I even think this.
I feel angry because I'm scared.
