Do You Try 2 Be Different ?

Do you find yourself trying to be different from the crowd ? I'm thinking, it's not so much that I try to be different, I just always been different and never really fit in the norm. Even when I tried to fit in, something still stood out, like you know sumthin' wasn't right lol. Artistic, Abstract, Uniqueness or whatever you want to call, I've been called all these things, sometimes I don't know rather it's a compliment or if it's just some nice way of people telling me I'm weird lol. Can any of you guys relate?

some people try, some people do, I think I'm already different, but I still try to be different too, if that makes any sense .

To answer your question Lisa, I think that, be yourself regardless of how people categorize you.

Conforming to nonconformity is contrived. I most appreciate people who are themselves, whether that makes them commonplace or eccentric.

No, but seriously, I've always been a different person. I mean, how many Black youth raised in the ghettos do you know who are advocates of New Wave? Prince, for that matter?

I don't think I've met my match yet. There's some folks that came close, but no cigar.

There's absolutely no one like New Wave Forever.


No one.

I've tried to be "normal" at times, I couldn't pull it off. I don't deliberately isolate myself from the masses, but they're embracing me less and less these days..
