I don’t know what happened
I’m mad at myself for not fitting in,
The star not fitting in a square hole
Is that a sin?
I stopped defining things by society
But society didn’t stop defining me
They say I need help
Okay, I agree
They say don’t drop out
Ahhh now I see
The lack of control makes them afraid
I don’t think they get it
I know I can do it, I have a plan
But even if I didn’t I just wish my mom would trust me
Let me do my own thing,
Fly to Pakistan?
I don’t wanna sit and smoke while in college
I wanna travel the world, create a business that won’t be forgotten
I’ve got big plans and I’m gonna follow through
Just stop clipping my wings
or I’ll find a way to fly away
One way or another it’s going to happen
I’m so pale I look like a ghost
That’s how it feels
To lose your host
Stop making me fit into that square shaped hole
When I’m a star
You wish you had done what I did
Yet you tell me to not move ahead.
I don’t need a degree
I don’t want to be part of that jealousy
Maybe college just isn’t for me?
I’ll finish finals week but then I’m done
Snap my fingers and disappear
No more fear.
I refuse to go along with others views
No matter the people
No matter how true
My truth is unique
One day they’ll say it’s okay
But for now I’ll keep picking the lock
In my cell

Can you tell?
