Betting
It would be easier to fit in than stand out
My heart wouldn’t feel heavy
They wouldn’t judge me quite so much
But I must say,
That if everyone were betting on the stronger horse
I would bet on the weaker one
Just to inspire some hope
Instead of going along with the others
Because sometimes what appears to be better
Doesn’t mean the other options aren’t good
I would much rather bet on the horse that no one else bets on
Then go along with the rest
Because in the outcasted
Is the extraordinary
And everyone deserves to have someone who has faith in them
Therefore I think I would like to be a weed in a field of wildflowers
Stubborn and unrelenting
Because everyone is someone
And I’m the type of person who wants people to know that
If you believe no one has faith in you
Then remember me,
Because I have faith in everyone, no matter their actions
And I bet on you
