I've said it before,
And I'm ready to tell it again.
In my lowest moment,
I'm my own best friend.
I wanna connect,
With the people around me,
The people that doubt me.
But being in a loud scene,
With a crowd screaming around me,
It's totally overwhelming,
To the point where I feel I'm drowning,
The sea and the fear surround me.
The cheers are bringing me down deep,
But now the crowning glory,
Is how the crowd applaud me.
Applause resounding all around,
The sound is out of the ordinary,
Kinda like my personality.
'Til I learned it wasn't a tragedy,
The mannerisms and Danielisms,
Are things that make me actually me.
An atom within the matter,
That's spanning the seas,
And planets and galaxies,
And that isn't an allegory,
We're all composed of energy.
And it means,
The planets a can of beans,
With infinite different varieties.
So why are em and V seen,
As a difficult bit of society?
Nah, fuck that.
We're the facets in the diamond,
While you're on the mountain shouting,
You can't see the fact we're climbing.
Me? I'm living with autism,
And all the worlds a stage,
For which I never auditioned.
Me? I'm living with autism,
My brain plays a syncopated,
Change of pace to your rhythm.
I'm living with autism,
And these bars formed the cells,
Of my mental prison.
'Til I saw I didn't need to be forgiven,
For being me,
And living with autism. (2x)
