Shouldn’t I be in the Alps or Andes not in a baby crib? So scared to leave the comfort of home, that I never lived. Why can’t I grow mature and find my true self? As the rest of society puts money and fame on the top shelf. Passing time by, to pass the time. Rationalize life-hindering decisions, even if the work is part-time. Don’t let reality get in the way of your dreams, and play into the schemes and themes of the powerful thieves. Materialism bogging down thoughts of freedom. Want to fly like an eagle, But the money is all spent. How are we all so content?

Materialism Freedom
Shouldn’t I be in the Alps or Andes not in a baby crib? So scared to leave the comfort of home, that I never lived. Why can’t I grow mature and find my true self? As the rest of society puts money and fame on the top shelf. Passing time by, to pass the time. Rationalize life-hindering decisions, even if the work is part-time. Don’t let reality get in the way of your dreams, and play into the schemes and themes of the powerful thieves. Materialism bogging down thoughts of freedom. Want to fly like an eagle, But the money is all spent. How are we all so content?
