Black Sheep

I am what I am for a reason
They overlook my purpose, but I’m here for a season
Vilified for being different
Only accepted based on their own interest
Greatness comes from a complete disconnect with the status Quo
But every time I tried, the society told me no

They spent years praying for a miracle
The idea of me being the answer seemed horrible?
They tore down the very thing that came to build them
I stood right there with a destiny to handle
They decided to blow out the candle
I had so much to say
Their lives would have been better if only they listened to it
My life turned out different from the way I envisioned it

Treated like an outcast
I put them first, they showed me why I am always last
Bullied into silence
The remedy was distance
Painfully derided in my presence
Harshly judged for my absence
They continued their quest for a miracle
When will they ever see?
That miracle came in the form of Me
