It Ain't For Popularity


Some live so they can be famous.

I know that's not living at all.

They are only after lots of money

But fame is their downfall.

I can't speak for everyone,

But as for what I see,

Those out there who care, live,

And it ain't for popularity.

Some few Hollywood royals, 

Whom people treat like kings,

Don't feel like they have privacy,

And all that famous brings.

The singers and musicians, too,

Neither do they want to be

Famous, unless that's what they choose.

But it ain't for popluarity.
