Anymore

Anymore

I guess I'm not that kid no more
Sitting in the corner
Nervous
Afraid
Soft
And shy

Getting pushed around
Crying in my bedroom
Tears drop as I wonder why

How can I be like the other guy's?
What does it take to fall in love?
Why do the girls like the other guys?
What do the girls think of…?
Me?

They must see that little Haitian kid
That doesn't speak too well
The one that acts like a bitch
The one that can't really spell

He's that little runt
The target of every bully
The suicidal kid
The one who pretends to act silly

The one who tries to fit in
He tries to sag his pants
He's desperate to be in the "in crowd"
He tries to be everyone's fan

He's that awkward kid
So we'll just pass him by
He’s innocent but mischievous
But I've never heard him tell a lie

But then again I've never
Given him a chance
First impressions told me everything
Everything that words can't

Imagine if they saw me now
Imagine what they would say
To see me confident and happy
And helping others along their way
They wouldn't see that shy Haitian kid
On the corner or on the floor
I'm pass that stage
I'm Kibbs Fortilus
I'm can’t be that no more
