Some people have been placed in positions of authority Looked up to by everyone Treated like royalty They're the it thing for a time By general society Then they get tiring to look at or see Then people get out their lighters And spark the wick For they sit on a powder keg that they didn't choose Didn't read the fine print Didn't know fame is a ruse One little spark and all hell breaks loose Trained from youth To lead not to follow But they have no real answers Their words are hollow Yet reflect what we're all thinking However shallow They are beacons of adversity Lightning rods of controversy The spirit of the times Show love to your celebrity but don't let them lead They are just human beings Don't bow at their feet
