Figured Out

You're still trying to figure me out
I haven't even figured it all out yet
but the question is still being asked
why do I do what I do 
is this really my purpose in life
or is it just another cry for help
from that lonely depressed kid
who had very few friends growing up 
flirt
guardian angel
hero
names I'm very familiar with 
but in my mind I hear
misunderstood
villain
martyr
I can't really control what's been said
because as people's energy changes
their perception of me changes also
maybe this has happened for you
so why do I do what I do
because it's who I am
and I chose to be who I am
that's all I've figured out so far
