I Love Being Me
by Gemma Hayton
I can't run the fastest
I can't swim the sea
I can't type the quickest
but I love being me
I can't kick a ball
or even climb a tree
I can't roll in the grass
but I still love being me
You see, this is my life
as others would see
they don't know what it's like
to really be me
So next time I'm about
rolling down the street
don't think of me disabled
but someone cool to meet
I have lots I can teach you
I have loads I can share
you will never gain my wisdom
if you just point and stare
So maybe I can't run the fastest
maybe I can't kick a ball
but I wouldn't change being me
not for you, not at all
