Be number one, don't worry about anyone
You must succeed, no matter what it takes
Society, has values that you must uphold
Think for yourself, don't swallow what you're told
Small triumphs that I see
Means so much more to me
And everyday, is just another struggle
We make our way, despite of all the lies
What does it mean and, what will we leave behind
Not what it seems, we value our own lives
Beauty and wealth, the media obsessed with them
These images, to which we all aspire
Financial gain, unrealistic expectations
And those who fail, are thrown up on the pile
Real people who achieve
Mean so much more to me
And everyday, is just another struggle
We make our way, despite of all the lies
What does it mean and, what will we leave behind
Not what it seems, we value our own lives
It's time to stop, and take stock of the way we're living
What will we leave, for those we come before
While history is written by the winners then it's
A shallow life, that we all have in store
Small triumphs that I see
Means so much more to me
And everyday, is just another struggle
We make our way, despite of all the lies
What does it mean and, what will we leave behind
Not what it seems, we value our own lives
