Don't Be Quick To Judge Me

People think they know me
Without even talking to me
They just assume the worst of me
And are so quick to judge me

They think I'm some prissy cheerleader
Who will scream if they don't concur
They think I listen to N'Sync at night
But if I did there'd be a big fight

I'm strong, not weak
I'm smart, not dumb
I'm shy, not bold
I'm me, not you

Don't hate me
cause I wear a mask to cover up my pain, my blues
We all hate
to be vulnerable to people like you
Don't look at me
cause you wear a mask too
but without a clue
you're so quick to judge me, not you
