the majority
tells you what you are
where to stand in the midst of all the stars
confusing
the rules
but you'll get used to it

step one: don't care out laud
the very first thing that got me
was my friend
more confident then most
but had to cave in
we go in the midst of all these people
and can't choose one topic
because she cares what people think?
but then later that day tells me she doesn't care what people
say
what's the difference?
if anything it should be the other way around
but being a teenager means you are on a different ground
which brings me to

step two: do what you gotta do
know this one actually applies to everybody
but you find it starts with the particular stage
you find yourself switching gears
if you will
when another crowd comes your way
and what do you doΒ Β when two crowds are together
go with the winning side
because if you're winning the battle
there's no need to hide
but you hide

step three: remembering God is being pushy
i find this one in many shapes and sizes
you're having too much fun
to remember what the prize is
you love to hate so you forget to love
but then you ask God about the lack thereof?

step four: it's not ok to slam a door
you believe life is full of chances
and that is is true
but some of those chances are not meant for you
it's ok to say no

but not to your parents :)
