I Cared

Im not as rich as you
But since when did it matter
All you care about is popularity
The right clothes, and the hot guy
Which change every week
I am different
I care about what matters
About my future
So where will you be in ten years
I'll have a great job and family
Because I didn't care
About boys and clothes
I cared about being me
