In the shadows, whispers grow bold
Excuses crafted, stories retold
Yet here you stand, unwavering, strong
Knowing deep down where you truly belong
No longer will you bow to deceit
Or let their words make you retreat
For kindness and respect are your due
And no one can take that away from you
They may try to belittle, to undermine
But your spirit shines, a beacon divine
Gaslighting attempts fall flat and weak
For you know your worth, the truth you seek
Stand firm, let your voice be heard
In a world where actions speak louder than words
Demand the respect you rightfully earn
And let their excuses crash and burn
You are not a vessel for their blame
Nor a pawn in their twisted game
With every step, you claim your space
Refusing to be erased, you embrace your grace
In the face of disrespect, you rise
With dignity that never dies
For you are a force, a light so bright
Guided by the stars in the darkest night
Let them see your strength, your resolve
As you stand firm, let their lies dissolve
For you deserve a world that's kind
Where respect and love are intertwined
Hold your head high, let your spirit soar
Demand the respect you deserve, and more
For in your heart, you know the truth
You are worthy, and you are proof
No more excuses, no more lies
Just the strength of your soul that never dies
Stand tall, demand respect, and see
The world transform, as it should be
