Good Enough


Society will make you believe

That you must be something to succeed

Be smart

Do art

Catch a shark

Get high marks

 

Society puts pressure on you

To create perfection too

Act professional and smile

But really all the while

Just be you

 

Don't be a fake

Think of a cake

Its unique and never the same

We are all in the game

 

Play fair and don't cheat

Whether you eat meat or wheat

Go and spread your wings

They are as majestic as the king's
