I may seem a little different

But really I am not

I don’t go to your school

But I’m still being taught

You talk a little faster

And walk quicker too

I just like to take my time

But I’ll catch up to you

Don’t treat me any different

As I wont to you

And we’ll get along just fine

As all people do

When it’s all put on paper

And seen in black and white

We’re all just human beings

With all the same rights

So don’t treat me any different

And I wont to you

And we’ll be then best of friends

It’s all up to you
