Metamorphosis

Born selfish and ignorant And my school gave me knowledge But never any wisdom And in addition the television programmed my brain Through it's constant repetition Misdirected infected with mundane roles and goals and heroes And although life really has purpose I wasted my youth in a social circus Told what is best for me But I've seen their destiny Our leaders ignominy Reconfirm my concern to rearrange and change my life I'll vow I'll vow right here And now no more time wasting just edification purification We can direct our future This life, this life has no meaning Unless we grow I know there's no use for all this screaming Unless we grow Born foolish dull and shelf absorbed But my life's dedicated to reformation and education In a nation that thinks great pleasure is a Disney vacation I never fit in to their system I couldn't understand people Wasting their time with so called love And drugs and occupations While outside the window is a crumbling nation So I searched for sincerity and lost popularity Well what do they want from me? If I lost friends they never were my friends at all! To find the real me through introspection And austerity is my life's mission my ambition I've got a vision to change my destiny Things don't change we must change
