Why do I let these people annoy me?
When I know you are the only one who matters?
You gave me life and you are my life
Where were they when I was down?
What do they know about me?
Why do I bother with them?
They believe her over me
They see me as someone else
Someone who lives their life as she does
They ignore my words, my actions and my belief
They judge me through rumours
And begin rumours
about me
I am the daughter of evil
Am shallow as can be
I am the slag, the liar and the hypocrite
She is the daughter of the earth,
The sun shines over her
And white is the dress she should wear
They are as bad as her, judges of all
He should not judge, or will be judged
Judged for actions of wrong
I myself judge, I admit it and say sorry
I see people from my opinions
And do not allow them to really shine
You judge me because you can
You love me as a sinner
You know me on the inside and the outside
It’s you I should worry about
It’s you I should impress
As it’s you whom I love
They don’t need impressed by me
You know the real me and so do I
Their opinions do now matter, yours does
I gave my life for you
I’d do anything for you
And I am so happy you love me as I am
