I will not be defined
By the color of my skin
The style of my clothes
Or what shape I am in
My size does not make me
Any different from you
Look in the mirror
It’s all point of view
Society has
No claim over me
Trying to validate
What I refuse to be
But I know better
Than any of they
I know my heart
And with that, I’m okay
