I'm Odd

Image Source: Google

I am proud of my brown skin
I don't care if I look slim or broad
I love myself the way I am
Yeah, probably that's why I'm odd

I believe in myself the most
Only after that, comes God
I don't have to pray to get things
Yeah, probably that's why I'm odd

I am in no way lesser than a man
I do not have to worship him as lord
I want no special reservations for me
Yeah, probably that's why I'm odd

I believe in speaking my mind out
My words might strike harder than a rod
I find no point in sugar coating them
Yeah, probably that's why I'm odd

I do not need too many people
I am very happy with my own little squad
I do not find the need to please people
Yeah, probably that's why I'm odd

I am protective about the people I love
Mess with me and you get clawed
I am my own power and strength
Yeah, probably that's why I'm odd

I do what ever I want to do
For societal norms I give no nod
My life my way, is my mantra
Yeah, probably that's why I'm odd

  5. Who is not odd? Most people wear a mask, I think and over time forget the difference between the mask and reality.
    It is the acceptance of 'being odd' that makes one special.

  10. Everyone should be odd (though that would make it even)...then the world would be a better place.
