Don't show them your frown
They'll know that you're down
And society has its expectations
Oh, but hide that smile
Just for a lil while
Cuz society has its expectations
Blend into the crowd
Or they'll call you loud
And society has its expectations
Obsessed with your phone
You're just a mindless clone
Or maybe, society has its expectations
They will pull
Like a bull
You'll conform
You'll be torn
Be a ghost
Like the most
And just hide
Don't confide
Cuz society has its expectations
Work hard everyday
Never sit and play
Cuz society has its expectations
Follow what you're taught
Or you'll end up caught
And society has its expectations
Do as you are told
Don't dare to be bold
You can be unique
But must have a clique
Cuz society has its expectations
They want you to be scared
Even to ask for help
They like to have control
And won't care if you welp
Want to meet the standards
But it's not possible
When the "perfection" you see
Isn't quite plausible
But still, society has its expectations
You'll follow
Be hollow
Cuz society has its expectations
