Sticks and Stones Won't Hurt
Throw your sticks and stones,
I won't stop being me,
Even if you break my bones,
I'll make peace with reality.
Say what you want,
I won't care,
Even if you taunt,
I won't feel despair.
You try to hurt me,
In a lot of ways,
But when will you see,
My happiness stays.
Even if I cry,
It won't last long,
It's not like I'll die,
Because you said something wrong.
You expect me to feel bad,
Or insecure,
But I won't get sad,
This I assure.
Say it to my face,
Or behind my back,
I'll just erase,
Your verbal attack.
So keep Hating,
Go ahead and taunt,
You won't keep me waiting,
From doing what I want.
