Not Complicated Just Complex


Let's all admit:

Reality is boring

What I don't get

Is why life is so corny?

We spend everyday

The exact same way

Either being a bum

Or working away

That's not me

Not who I want to be

I just let my imagination run free

 

This might sound embrassin'

But I like to pretend

I'm a video game character

Rolling and jumping

People like to judge

But they can kiss fudge

I'll never change my life

Nope not a budge

We spend everyday

The exact same way

I like to change it up a bit

But that's when people throw fits

Why I can't be a King one day and a nerd the next

I'm not complicated just complex
