Uncomfortable

I don't need your permission to be me
I don't have to explain what you see
I survived much trauma to get here 
And just in case it's not perfectly clear
I won't be a victim of societal abuse
I won't raise the white flag of truce
I will stand my ground right where I'm at
Nobody's going to do a thing about that
I grew up thinking I was always at fault
For every single unkind and brutal assault
Conditioned to always take the blame
Forced to carry a load of unearned shame
I've come to terms with the weight of it 
But I'm still uncomfortable with the fit
