The Quarterback

Chapter 6 - Sing Off

Rachels pov :
All of the glee club gathered in the auditorium to watch Finn and I's sing off. "You okay Rach ? " Quinn asked me . "Yeah I mean how good can he be ?" I asked . She looked at me, "Well he's pretty much our male lead in here . " She told me . "It doesn't matter I've been singing since I was 2 years old . " I told her . "Okay well good luck . " She said. "Thanks . " I said. "Rachel , Finn center stage . " He told us . We both walked onto center stage , I looked at Finn and he looked back at me . God he's cute I thought . Wait what am I saying ? I do not like Finn at all . I told myself do I ? I questioned , No you do not Rachel , you can't. I told myself "Rachel. " Mr.Shue said interrupting my thoughts . "Yeah ?" I asked. "Heads or tails?" He said. "Heads . " I said and he flipped the coin. "Tails , Finn you're going first . " He told him . He smirked as I sat down with Mr.Shue in the audience.
"This song is one of my favorites . " Finn said and the band started :
" Finn:
I don't need to be anything other
Than a prison guard's son
I don't need to be anything other
Than a specialist's son
I don't have to be anyone other
Than the birth of two souls in one
Part of where I'm going, is knowing where I'm coming from
( Wow he's good I thought )
[Chorus:]
I don't want to be
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me

I'm surrounded by liars everywhere I turn
I'm surrounded by imposters everywhere I turn
I'm surrounded by identity crisis everywhere I turn
Am I the only one who noticed?
I can't be the only one who's learned!

[Chorus]

Can I have everyone's attention please?
If you're not like this and that, you're gonna have to leave
I came from the mountain
The crust of creation
My whole situation-made from clay to stone
And now I'm telling everybody

[Chorus]

I don't want to be [x4]"
(Song finished )
Everyone clapped as Finn came down from the stage and came up to me , "Your turn . " he said with a smirk . I rolled my eyes and went up to the stage. "This for all the girls who've been told they can't do something by a man . " I said and looked at Finn .
The band started :
" Mr. Know It All
Well ya think you know it all
But ya don't know a thing at all
Ain't it, ain't it something y'all
When somebody tells you something 'bout you
Think that they know you more than you do
So you take it down another pill to swallow

Mr. Bring Me Down
Well ya, ya like to bring me down, don't you?
But I ain't laying down, baby, I ain't goin' down
Can't nobody tell me how it's gonna be
Nobody's gonna make a fool out of me
Baby, you should know that I lead not follow

[Chorus:]
Oh you think that you know me, know me
That's why I'm leaving you lonely, lonely
'Cause baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
You ain't got the right to tell me
When and where to go, no right to tell me
Acting like you own me lately
Yeah baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me

Mr. Play Your Games
Only got yourself to blame when you want me back again
But I ain't falling back again
'Cause I'm living my truth without your lies
Let's be clear baby this is goodbye
I ain't coming back tomorrow

[Chorus:]
Oh you think that you know me, know me
That's why I'm leaving you lonely, lonely
'Cause baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
You ain't got the right to tell me
When and where to go, no right to tell me
Acting like you own me lately
Yeah baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me

[Bridge:]
So what you've got the world at your feet
And you know everything about everything
But you don't
You still think I'm coming back but baby you'll see yeah...

[Chorus:]
Oh you think that you know me, know me
That's why I'm leaving you lonely, lonely
'Cause baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
You ain't got the right to tell me
When and where to go, no right to tell me
Acting like you own me lately
Yeah baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me

Mr. Know It All
Well ya think you know it all
But ya don't know a thing at all
Yeah baby you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me. "
( End of song )
Everyone clapped and cheered as I took my bows. Finn smiled at me then came up on the stage, "impressive. "
