Most Important
They did not lie to us!
I’m telling you, they did not!
They told us we could be whatever we sought
Oh, when did you stop believing that’s true?
You have surrendered to "easy" and that simply won’t do
Was it the truth of Santa Clause or the Easter bunny?
Don’t put up the white flag, don’t give into money
I know they have lied maybe once or twice
but you have to trust me, we weren’t meant to be mice
trapped in a lab, and tested forever
We were meant to create, to make our own treasure
You can do it, I promise
Just find what you like
even if it’s completely out of your sight
Learn about life, learn to respond
Learn about anything, everything and beyond
If you need some help, you need not worry
when you follow your dreams, they get much less blurry
Passion will motivate much more than the salaries
and eat your cookies, for life is not counted in calories
Now don’t you worry and don’t you doubt
Who cares about society and their silly route
For you are society and it’s your dreams to pursue
and to your pain I would say, “I bid you adieu”
I am going on an adventure, I’m not sure where it leads
Whether I go through thorns, bushes or weeds
but if I enjoy making better of something, somewhere
I know I have found success and that is my prayer
