"There are many creatures on this planet š, itās beautiful that weāre not all the same
But some people do not like this difference
What they do not understand makes them afraid
I know, my spiritās colossal
But theyāll just see the tip of my iceberg
Whatās on the surface? A dope outfit
But thereās more to me than you can see
I like what i like and i donāt need your validation
I wear what i want and thereās no need for explanation
I love who i love and i donāt need your validation
We can all be who we are and have a celebration
I squish words togayther like a gibberish sandwich š„Ŗ. I make magic eat poetry for breakfast š³ I use clay to make a weird tree forest š³ and then I photoshop myself into it. Iām like a big kid, proud to not fit in, my gender is my imagination the coolest animation. I doodle when Iām anxious, find comfort in the strangeness, my laugh sounds like a creepy horse š“ but it's contagious. I think youāve got a universe š inside, yup, and you donāt have to stay between the lines, you were born to shine āØ. My style inspirationās the colourful fish š in the sea but quite frankly all pigs š®āāļø disgust me, i LOVE being queer, brown and nonbinary,i LOVE strumming on my ukulele Lucy ayyy, when things get awkward I break out in song š¶, everyone is welcome! everyone belongs!
I like what i like and i donāt need your validation
I wear what i want and thereās no need for explanation
I love who i love and i donāt need your validation
We can all be who we are and have a celebration
As i grow i shed the parts i needed to protect myself
Walls that i erected held my breath hoping theyād treat me well
But fuck respectability, stick to my integrity
I am not for everyone iām done with tryin to people please
I am me and thatās all that i can be (x3)
I am me and iām
GAY!"
