Should I be
Living differently
Acquire that position
Level up ambition
Join the race
Giant in a small place
Win or die
Be that guy
To gain respect
Life I neglect
Sacrifices to impress
Waking to stress
To make money
But it’s funny
We must make it
While we fake ****
Eat the little fish
How we wish
For better days
As we stay
In this comfort zone
Our skills we hone
Paying a cost
To be a boss
Each has a price
Which may never suffice
To be on top
We must hop
To someone else
Forgetting one self
To ultimately succeed
Should I concede
I stay conflicted
Or maybe I’m misdirected
