Why does no one consider the fact
that even though I'm smart enough
to go above and beyond
that I could be a leader
and change the world
I don't want toI just want to live my life
go to college
get a degree
and then a jobI know I can do anything I put my mind to
But I'm already struggling enough
Most of my energy goes to stay alive
So who cares if I'm capable of doing moreI just want to wake up one day and not dread the fact that I'm still alive
It's not that I don't think I'm incapable of changing the world
I just want to live
And love itWhy do I dread the fact that I'm still alive...
