I stand on a stage with no audience
Shouting out my innocence
How society has brutally beaten me down to my beat
I stand on the stage with no audience
They took my pride and joy and ridiculed me to nothing
Stand on a stage with no audience

Why do I feel pain because of something
I took no part in
Why am I breathing so hard to prove
My innocence in a diagnosis that was not
Made by me
I stand on the stage with no audience

I thought they would have forgiven me by now
As I took the centre stage to prove I’m not different to them
Yet I stand in front of society each and every day
To prove my value and worth in a diagnosis
That was not made by me
It only said that I was intellectually disabled
And that was not my doing
Stage that had millions of people as my audience
I stand in front of them and claim my doom because
My innocence was not enough as I took the stage with no audience…
