Who decided who I was,
It certainly wasn’t me.
My parents gave me this name,
They decided who I'd be.
Who decided who I was,
Who gave me this body,
A brain with intermittent function,
Really its just shoddy.
Who decided who I was,
Gave me a brain that over thinks,
Doubting everything around me,
Really that just stinks.
Did you decide who I was,
Is it you that gave me purpose,
If you know my role in life, I implore you,
Please, just let it surface.
Can I decide who I am?
Find my own path,
There are things about myself I know I cannot change,
But I thought I'd ask.
I know the answer to these questions,
But I ask them anyway,
Hoping that for someone reason they change,
And you say what I want you to say.
But I cannot decide who I am?
The decisions are made before birth,
Decisions no one can control,
Decide my place on this earth.
I cannot decide who I am,
The decisions were yours to make,
So I ask you all Mighty God,
Is it possible, you made a mistake?
