I'M Not The Same Poem by Ninja Soul

I'm not who I used to be.
I'm different now.
A better person actually.

Use to...
I would let people take advantage of me.
I let people control me,
and be mean to me and care about it.

But not no more.
I control myself,
and I defend myself,
and do as I wish.

Use to...
I was emo,
and a cutter.
Including a goth.
I was in the darkness.

But not now.
I have no label.
I don't do labels.
I'm just a free-spirited soul.
Who has no desires of being labeled something,
that I'm not.

I'm not the same.
I'm a better person.
I speak my mind.
I don't put up with peoples b/s.
I look at things in a different perspective,
and in a better point of view.

I'm not as pessimistic,
not like I used to be.
I still am when it comes to,
saying good things about me.
But I'm trying to work on that one.
