About this listen

A podcast looking at the world as an autistic person and as an advocate. Host Rich thought that autism was introduced into his life when his son was born and went through the process of understanding autism as an advocate. As his son got older, he began asking questions of his own self and was diagnosed late as an adult. Now, he wants to talk about the change from advocate to autistic person and also speak to the many people as autistic people, or advocates for autistic people and share positivity of autism to the world.Advocate to Autistic Hygiene & Healthy Living

    Un Fel Chi I try my best to fit but I'm never good enough.

    You judge music by looks, you exploit a thing that way.

    There's a horizon in every corner but everyone chooses one.

    It's all the same old story, just a completely different picture.

    I have no wings nor the ability to fly.

    I'm not agile but I'm still standing up.

    Looks and ability: this is a complete difference.

    Why has everyone painted the whole world black and white?
    Chorus

    I've stood for innocence

    I've stood for the truth

    and I still can't believe

    that it takes a long time.

    What is it exactly that's stopping you

    from letting me join in the fun?

    I do things differently

    but I'm still one,

    still one like you.

    You're busy with your entertainment.

    You do nothing but keep score.

    No one drives controls here.

    Only you are your jury.

    Too much dependence and your assumptions narrow you down.

    Will you ever learn to understand the much wider picture?

    Middle 8
    Look around. Now look to me.
