Part of me wants to quit school, Run away, hitching rides on cargo planes To foreign countries and experience life As they do, encounter the wild, natural world Instead of watching it on animal planet But then again, you need money for anything, And it seems like my life has already Been predetermined, set on a path I'm vet school and Tulane bound, that's what would make my parents proud I still have a choice they say, But that on it's own is daring me to pick the wrong thing And they'll disprove of me forever

Wants vs needs
Part of me wants to quit school, Run away, hitching rides on cargo planes To foreign countries and experience life As they do, encounter the wild, natural world Instead of watching it on animal planet But then again, you need money for anything, And it seems like my life has already Been predetermined, set on a path I'm vet school and Tulane bound, that's what would make my parents proud I still have a choice they say, But that on it's own is daring me to pick the wrong thing And they'll disprove of me forever
