Am I Wrong
Am I wrong for thinking
out the box from where I
stay?
Am I wrong for saying that
I choose another way?
I ain't tryna do what
everybody else doing
Just cause everybody doing
what they all do
If one thing I know, I'll fall
but I'll grow
I'm walking down this road
of mine, this road that I
call home
So am I wrong
For thinking that we could
be something for real?
Now am I wrong
For trying to reach the
things that I can't see?
But that's just how I
feel,
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
Trying to reach the things
that I can't see
Am I tripping for having a
vision?
My prediction: I'mma be on
the top of the world
Walk your walk and don't
look back, always do what
you decide
Don't let them control your
life, that's just how I feel
Fight for yours and don't
let go, don't let them
compare you, no
Don't worry, you're not
alone, that's just how we
feel.

Am I wrong
For thinking that we could

For trying to reach the

But that's just how I feel,
That's just how I feel
That's just how I feel
Trying to reach the things
that I can't see
If you tell me I'm wrong,
wrong
I don't wanna be right,
right
If you tell me I'm wrong,
wrong
I don't wanna be right
Am I wrong

No two people are

exactly the same. Its hard
enough for teenagers and
young adults to find their
place in the world but it
only gets harder as a gay,
transgender, or queer
individual. These
individuals are often told
that their gender, and or
sexual orientation are
merely a phase because it
doesnt comply with what
societys so called norm.
Nico & Vinz song Am I
Wrong is the perfect
anthem for individuals
that are constantly told
that they arent living their
life the right way simply
because they are unique
individuals. Sometimes it
is not enough to be
yourself sometimes you
have to fight for what you
believe is right for you no
matter how big the odds
against you are.

Am I wrong for thinking out

the box from where I stay. Am
I wrong for saying that I
choose another way?
Transgender individuals are often bullied
simply because they dont identify with the gender
they were born with, which causes a lot of pain and
isolation in the lives of transgender individuals.
Unfortunately because so many people dont
understand these individuals and their situation
many people suggest that they can be fixed but
of course this is never the case. The National
Center for Transgender Equality puts it like this,
All people, including young people, have a gender
identity a deeply rooted sense of themselves as
male or female. Gender identity is distinct from
sexual orientation, but like sexual orientation is a
fundamental part of a persons identity that cannot
be voluntarily changed This perfectly sums up the
fact that transgender individuals are just like
everyone else, and the only difference is that they
were not born with genitalia that usually goes with
the gender they identify with.

If one thing I know Ill

fall but Ill grow. Im
walking down this road of
mine, this road that I call
home.

Many members of the LGBTQ

community often face harsh judgment from
people that dont understand their lifestyle
choices. Transgender individuals, especially,
are often told that the way they live their
lives is sinful and wrong. It is important
that individuals accept themselves for who
they are in order to be free of the affect that
outside opinions cause. Just like Jazz,
members of the LGBTQ community have a
better chance at happiness if they chose to
express themselves as the person they
really are and not what society expects them
to be.

Fight for yours and dont let

go, dont let them compare you,
no. Dont worry, youre not
alone, thats just how we
feel.
Even today, minority groups are not treated
with the same respect and they do not possess
the same rights as the majority. As minorities
transgender people must fight harder than
those who are considered normal for those
rights. This reality makes the lives of
transgender individuals much more difficult
than necessary. Too often they are not even
given the right to be addressed with the
gender they identify with. This is evident in
the film My Life In Pink where the
protagonist Ludovic is bullied and ridiculed
multiple times. Through the abuse Ludovic
still continues to be the person who she really
is no matter how many times there is
resistance.

If you tell me Im wrong,

wrong, I dont wanna be
right, right.

So am I wrong (Am I wrong),

for thinking that we could be
something for real? Now am I
wrong (am I wrong) For trying
to reach the things that I
cant see.
