Wanna know what's got me crying?
Life, It's as simple as that
A life where people say curiosity killed the cat
But you can bet that I am still here
Living day by day, as life grows to be more unclear
As life's layers begin to unfold
You are expected to do exactly what you are told
You are expected to make something of yourself
To live a long life in great health
But Dear Life, May I offer you some free advice?
If you want people to live by your rules, your way
You gotta offer them something that'll make them stay
They need something to live for
Something that will keep them coming back for more
And I don't want your petty promises
I am in need of a life hack
Something to guide me, to always have my back
I'm sorry, but...
Is that too much to ask?
