According to them, I’m ambitious
Yes, I am! I’ve got to be like that and be cautious
If not, I will never grasp my ambition
And I will be a dump loser with no emotion
According to them, I’m truly weak
Astoundingly, I take a deep sign, I don’t want to meek
I hurdle any shortcomings, I hate chat
Weak is not my bound lines, just observe my physique stat
According to them, I’m bull-headed
Am I? What’s the roots of this success and was applauded?
Can I stand now with pride if I’m what they thought?
‘Cause they do not know me well and that is a big quote
According to them, I’m a sinner
Just because I never go to church, It’s a mind-killer
They never know what’s in my heart, in my soul
That is, truths are blinded by my actions, it’s my all
But it was just according to them
At least, I live on my own and nothing to do with them
I just close my eyes and ears, it’s my anthem
And make a smile, smile of pure and of vision, for them
