No one has it figured out I know this without a doubt Not the guard patrolling Nor the teacher strolling Not the scientist in theory Nor the taxi driver steering It may seem as though they have a hard heart That doesn’t get twisted or burned by any noble part It may seem as though they have a metal fist That knocks and pounds to no exist It may seem as though they have firm lips That doesn’t tremble or bite along with any tiff It may seem as though they have planted feet That doesn’t trip or skip to get to their seat It may seem as though their have a clear head That doesn’t hurt or confuse with anything said But don’t be mistaken by things that appear to be What seems strong and solid is really weak just like you and me.

Confidence Is Key
No one has it figured out I know this without a doubt Not the guard patrolling Nor the teacher strolling Not the scientist in theory Nor the taxi driver steering It may seem as though they have a hard heart That doesn’t get twisted or burned by any noble part It may seem as though they have a metal fist That knocks and pounds to no exist It may seem as though they have firm lips That doesn’t tremble or bite along with any tiff It may seem as though they have planted feet That doesn’t trip or skip to get to their seat It may seem as though their have a clear head That doesn’t hurt or confuse with anything said But don’t be mistaken by things that appear to be What seems strong and solid is really weak just like you and me.
