My New Life

I used to to put everyone
above me
And I could touch no one
so no one loved me
And I knew something was wrong

I wasted myself
becoming obese was a dream
I didn't see it coming
comparing and never daring
To let myself shine it seemed

All I had was my voice
and a few petty rhymes
One day they said "try"
and try did I
I pumped more iron
and I changed in a small way

I let that go and I tried something more
I'd always like to sing, but never anything for
I competed in All Region
I made the cut

Singing and lifting got me somewhere
but make me it did not.
I made myself
And I'm proud to say
My life as a teen
Is only beginning today
