Everyone Says to be yourself, because everybody else is taken,
But Everyone veers from themselves.
Everyone Says to not fake it.
But Everyone lies.
Everyone Says to follow your dreams.
But Everyone loses hope.
Everyone Says that your life is a story, and only you can write it.
But Everyone pushes people around.
Everyone Says that your the main character.
But Everyone seeks the spotlight,
Everyone Says to carve your own path.
But Everyone follows in someone's footsteps.
Everyone Says to break from the mold.
But Everyone strives to fit in.
Everyone Says to be the best version of yourself.
But Everyone is a hypocrite.
