I AM ME!
I will not be overtaken
I will not be stirred
I will not stay down, feeling less than or obscured
I am important
I am unique
See my heart, my desires, my squeak
I may not seem like much now
Trust me, I understand
But rest assured, there’s something else
Something powerful that will stand
I am ME!
Hear my scream
I won’t fall victim
To insecurity
Knock me down once
Ha! Watch me bounce
Knock me down twice
There! I am back
Back to attack
Not back to surrender
Back to take back what is mine
No need to wonder
I am here to conquer
I am here to be me
Because I understand
No one can take that from me
I’d have to relinquish it
And give up my dignity
But I have the power
To say, “No, that’s not happening!”
I will not be stirred
