A Difference

When I try to speak my mind
I hear the buzzes from behind
No not nice
I've heard them twice

And when I speak
I feel so weak
While I hear the voices
Dismember my choices

"Your not good enough"
"Your still not so tough"
"We're better than you"
"And you even knew"

That is true
"We're better than you"
But its how I act
Now there's a fact

To stand and say
"I'm here today"
To ignore the voices
Who dismember my choices

To laugh at myself
To be perched up high on a shelf
Not to be afraid
But willing stand my grade

I am brave
For it is what I gave
It is what I give
It is what I live
