❤️❤️❤️Maybe every remix will become another voice speaking up for Michael.❤️❤️❤️ [verse1] When I was a boy, I was a troubled kid, Let me tell it plain, the only way I know. Never met the people who gave me life, Born from a mother in a steep decline. Hurt by the hands that were meant to protect, Then came the seed that would become me. The woman who’d be my sister watched it fall apart, Needles in arms, the house caving in. Born addicted, broken, into the system, Taken by a family, trying to begin. Set free in a world that never asked for me, Still learning how to stand within. [Pre-Chorus] My road was hard. My days were heavy. Therapy and medication shaped my life. I kept asking, "What's wrong with me?" [Chorus] Don't hate me. Don't hate me with words. Don't shut me out. I live each day in a world that often doesn't understand me. bear that cross, its weight is real we have to live with choices we make. no, no don't hate me hate me!!! [Verse 2] I wish I could say it all worked out clean, That the adopted child found his place. But something burned wild inside my veins, An outcast learning the rules too late. At four they named it, words and charts, Bipolar storms and a restless mind. Medication running just to keep me steady, Trying to shape me into a line. By sixth grade I was out of the classroom, Anger spilled and I crossed a line. Locked away, my teenage years behind me, Graduated carrying that time. [Pre-Chorus] My road was hard. My days were heavy. Therapy and medication shaped my life. I kept asking, "What's wrong with me?" [Chorus] Don't hate me. Don't hate me with words. Don't shut me out. I live each day in a world that often doesn't understand me. bear that cross, its weight is real we have to live with choices we make. no, no don't hate me hate me!!! [Verse 3] Once I was out, I drifted for meaning, Searching the sea for somewhere to land. Found a little pride in honest work, But even that slipped through my hands. Still I learned the world isn’t simple, You’re more than the worst you’ve done. In a tide of hate, resolve grows quiet, Strength can live in anyone. Don’t be afraid if you stand alone, Hold your ground without the fight. Those who walk steady don’t need to shout, They just keep moving toward the light. [Bridge] Speak your truth, even if misunderstood, But never let it turn to hate. Self-righteous fire can hollow a heart, And twist what we create. Hold the light that contrasts the dark, Let it guide the words you choose. You don’t win by breaking someone, You win by what you refuse. [Pre-Chorus] My road was hard. My days were heavy. Therapy and medication shaped my life. I kept asking, "What's wrong with me?" [Chorus] Don't hate me. Don't hate me with words. Don't shut me out. I live each day in a world that often doesn't understand me. bear that cross, its weight is real we have to live with choices we make. no, no don't hate me hate me!!! [Outro] March on, kid — you’ve got a world to craft. let us bask. bask in the rays you display!!
