The World Once Told Me
The world once told me
If you have a dream, go for it
Push on, push through
Don't let anyone stop you
You are immortal, invincible.
But the world also didn't tell me,
That none of this was true,
Life is rough, life is tough,
People can and will be cruel.
Dreams are only for profit
A means to live and survive.
World I thought I could trust you,
World, I thought I loved you,
World, you played me for a fool
World, oh world, you once told me.
