Me

HOPE IS UNBEARABLE 
LOVE IS MUCH PAIN
CARING IS TOO MUCH
LIFE IS IN VAIN

RACE FOR THE FINISH 
KEEP A SMILE
DONT FEEL OTTA PLACE
WE'RE ALL HUMAN CHILD

KEEP YOUR HEAD IN THEM BOOKS
GRANDMA WOULD SAY
LIVE WHILE YOU CAN
WE ALL GON LEAVE ONE DAY

LIFE IS A GAME
YOU GOTTA PLAY IT SMART
GRANDPA ALWAYS SAID THAT
FROM THE VERY START

I CHANGE VIEWS
THOUGH I DONT SEE MUCH
NOT LIFE NOR DEATH
COULD KEEP FROM GODS TOUCH

I LIKE TO BE ME
CAUSE IT SETS ME APART
PEOPLE TELL ME IM BRIGHT, AN INTELLECTUALIST, 
YOU KNOW, SMART

BUT I DONT BELIEVE THEM 
NOPE NOT ONE WORD THEY SAY
BUT I DO BELIEVE THEM WHEN THEY SAID
ILL BE SUCCESSFUL ONE DAY.
