The problem with being loud and obnoxious
Putting ourselves in boxes
Being vibrant and funny
With making small talk and making money
Is that
It's
Not
Real
That's not who we are
No one sees into the background
No one gets past our costars
We aren't just a pretty face
We're a person
We're a soul
Impossible to replace.
Don't hide out, don't stay in the shadows
Isolation leads to ignorance -
A fine place for a bad blow
After ignorance, what's next?
Apathy hits us until we grow vexed
It leads us destruction,
But let's not destroy ourselves
We've got more stories than our costars tell
We've got great books on our shelves
It
Is
Real
This beauty and magnificence
From stories seldom told
Take the lead, my costar
Take life by the firmest hold
Don't fear the past
Don't fear today
Don't fear what's up ahead
Look back and learn and let's use our skills
For this lifetime's good, instead
I
Am
