Playing Pretend
I want to be someone
Worthwhile to follow
Who’s strong and un-scareable
But soft and not hollow.
I’ll rule how I want
With my people behind,
But keep ‘em all happy
By treating ‘em kind.
I’ll listen and fix ‘em
Whenever they’re broken
They won’t be alone
Cause I’ll be there to hold ‘em.
I’ll lead and they’ll follow
Like my favorite game;
They’ll clap and they’ll cheer
And scream my name.
