"Stuck. I'm stuck in this school, stuck in this town, stuck in this life - stuck in this very existence. I'm stuck between what I love & what makes money, happiness over financial stability. Stuck with white walls & navy accents & a large crowd of humans I mostly despise & teachers & learning & test scores determining how bountiful your life is. Stuck is this mentality I've grown up in; it's the mentality I want out of. I don't want to be stuck. I want music & lyrical masterpieces & city lights somewhere I've never been & will only be in for a short while. I don't want to be stuck; I want freedom. I want the wind in my hair & stage lights blurring my vision as my voice is full of my own magnum opus. I want speed & travel & change. I want to get out & go move somewhere new & bursting with activity & people. I want late nights & loud music. I wanna lose my voice due to its sheer volume for hours on end. So no, no, no, no - I don't want to be stuck. I want there to be change & progress. I want happiness & passions to reign freely. I want beliefs freed from the shackles of taboo. I want to live my life how I want. I don't want to be stuck; I want to change the world."
