We settle for average                    
While we aim to the top              
We do not do much                      
Yet we wonder a lot                      

We want to say something            
But we think that it's dumb          
You need to go somewhere          
But your legs become numb                                  
     
                                                     
You want to stand out                                      
       
But go with the flow
You know you are different
But you're afraid to show

You feel so much pressure
Can't stand, become shy
Then you are a robot
Do things- not knowing "why?"

And now you just act
You don't want to stray
You're becoming so weak
'cause there looking away

You need their attention
To be one of the guys
Your being an ass hole
And not caring "why?"

Now you're with the ones
Who looked at you from above
Who used to spit in your face
And you wanted their love

Open your eyes, change!    
You are a clown!
'cause there always will be someone
To spit on your face when you are down...
