I want to be normal, well, according to societal standards
Because the standard set has determined I am different
I will take this opportunity to vent
What if I am not meant to be average? Maybe I am an outlier
I aspire to do more than just the norm, I desire to inspire
To be a light and a fire, an ever-glowing blaze
I want to raise the average expectation of the destination
Of an individual to just get by, to just be another number
Walking around in a slumber without any direction
I am an injection of the amazing
Indicating the creative does not need a box that surrounds
Maybe a workaround is better than the established way
That does not include reference to the illegal but
A mention to obtaining elevation of soaring like an eagle
An alternative way is not necessarily the incorrect solution
The execution may not be the trend
The result is often the same or even better in the end
How will improvement ever come if innovation is not embraced?
I am faced with the challenge of having someone willing to hear
Instead of looking at what I communicate with fear
An untested and unproven idea that has a chance of failure
How do we advance without exposure to something more?
I choose to open the unknown door and see the other side
The insight and the opportunity that one step forward can provide
I want to be defined by more than just what the consensus thinks
Blink, and you might miss the possibility
To see what ingenuity can create
I wish I could relate to the status quo
I flow to a different drum-beat
The world thinks I should wallow in defeat
For not being typical, but that is what is beautiful
I am special and original
The critical detail that eyes miss
Is that I consist of more than just of the perceived weaknesses
I am resilient and brilliant to pass every test
I am curious and creative without quantitative limitations
Given the opportunity, I exceed all expectations
All that is needed is a different viewpoint
To see my true potential
I believe a vision change is essential
To see the identity of me
