We don't have to sit back and try to fit
We don't have to toughen up and be a hypocrite
We can take and stand and change it
This isn't where we make shallow friends
This isn't where our story ends
This is how we overcome the dead-ends
Our reputation changes with us
Our reputation is not superfluous
Our reputation will not be our Aeacus
Don't try to fit in and stay bowed
Don't look down make sure your head is up proud
Don't be one of the crowd

We don't have to sit back and try to fit
We don't have to toughen up and be a hypocrite
We can take and stand and change it
This isn't where we make shallow friends
This isn't where our story ends
This is how we overcome the dead-ends
Our reputation changes with us
Our reputation is not superfluous
Our reputation will not be our Aeacus
Don't try to fit in and stay bowed
Don't look down make sure your head is up proud
Don't be one of the crowd
I was responding to a quote in English class today and when I looked at what I wrote I was inspired to write this.
