Follower or Leader?

Is it so bad to want to be accepted?
Is it so bad to want something for yourself?
Is it so bad to not want to change for anyone else?
I'm called a follower, I'm not.
What I really want, is just to be accepted for once
To not be called some Wierdo, to not be put down all the time
I can be a leader
But even a leader can want to be accepted for once.
Even a leader goes through times where they doubt themselves
Where they just want to be accepted
No matter what they are or what they do
I am a leader
I am not a follower no matter what they say
Not matter what they tell me
And with this I say I will not back down
I will not let their words stop me from doing what I want
If I want to write, I will write
If I want to sing, I will sing at the top of my lungs
If I want to draw, then no matter what I will draw
I will be myself no matter what they say
No more holding back no more changing for others
You hear me, now it's time for you to listen
I will not be silenced
I will not be put down
I am a leader
My name is Jinx and
I will not change for others.
