To Be Who I Want To Be

How I long for the center stage

To be finally out of this mental cage

How I wish to be who I want to be

and to live happy, properous, and carefree

 

But if I show my very true form

and rise above that which is the norm

Will I be able to be who I want to be

and not fall down in misery

 

What if I can't do the job

and drop like a ball that was lobbed

Will I be who I want to be

and become happy and carefree

 

I hope day and night for luck

that I might get as much as a buck

I want to be who I want to be

But am I able to pay the fee?
