Don’t act like this is the first time
That I’ve acted like you, gone out of the line
That you painted, thick as hell
What I deal with, is like a prison cell
So unfair, but you don’t see me complaining
I’ll try my best, I’ll try to refrain
But messing up is the only way I’ll learn
I’m going to do it, on my own terms
A scrape on the knee is something I need
I can’t live on information. I need confirmation.
Trust me, I won’t succeed
If I’m not allowed to pursue my dreams
I’d rather be unhappy, knowing that I tried
I’d rather have the knowledge that I’m alive
When you said that I had better take a seat
I prayed to god hoping that you would see
No matter how many decisions you make
I don’t have to decide which to leave and take
Your opinion is exclusively yours
Trying things on my own isn’t exactly a chore
Let me go, please release your hold
Life’s better on your own, or at least that’s what I was told
