Transparency

I might not be the me which you always see
Always wandered why I have been so different to the world
Got all of my acting skills from there
And now, I am talented and full of skills
Been through many hills
But i guess by the time i was going through the valley
I was just too good at what i was doing
Now I question myself
What if the world knew the real me
But that would have happened
Only if the walls were transparent
But I guess that being the glass
Wasn't that hard
But if I became it in front of the world
I might have climbed high
And fallen into the crater of the volcano
Would have climbed a volcano, thinking it was a mountain
But sometimes, there is something in between the wall and the glass
And I feel like I can be that in front of a few
I can be translucent
But at the end
They are also part of this world
