the last to be picked for a game
the first to be picked on
the last to be talked to
the first to be shoved or hit
the last to be thought of
the first to feel pain
the last to be cared for
the first to lose their self esteem
the last to speak out
"what about me?"
only a whisper among millions
a voice unheard

winds have changed
your place is now mine
you've walked in my shoes
you speak out
"what about me?"
only a whisper among millions
a voice unheard
