Entry 3: Envy

I am an outsider, messing with color outside the lines They have the last puzzle piece The one that I always seem to misplace The threat is suffocating Burns vast like wildfire I pull out my armour and dig my heels in hard With my defences ready I cover up my eyes Half a smile protecting I will not loose my pride They walk so easy I climb the steeper path Your elegance in breathing gives me a heart attack I am who I am, who I am, it's who I am I pretend to face the argument of choosing love above myself But I've screamed along with sirens, nobody came to help You are acknowledged Journey on higher ground I'll admit you're smarter Your confidence profound I am who I am, who I am, it's who I am I am not chained to who I am I can see past where I stand Magnify difference as freedom we hold in our hands I know the truth I lie in grace I fight myself in empty space My roots grow so much deeper But underneath your feet, I have no true perspective I am who I am, more than who I am I am not chained to who I am I can see past where I stand Magnify difference as freedom we hold in our hands
