The world is watching you
All of their eyes are on you
The world is watching you now
If the pressure is too much, suck it up
You are graduating soon
How does that feel?
To know that the top schools in the world are looking at you now
Everything matters from this point on
Their eyes are on you now
Get into that top school so you have a slight chance at being anything
Be ready to spend the rest of your life swimming in debt
You are nothing if not a university student
Those AP classes all matter now
They see every mistake you make
You are no longer a human
At most you are a sheep in the herd
The herd of students who were taught that
“College is the only way you will succeed”
Who are you without college
To make a living in this world you need to have something to your name
A 4.0 is not enough now
If you have enough time for friends
Forget Harvard
Be good at everything
Play a sport
Do an art
Do at least a million things to have the chance to be anything
But you have until June
You have until June to live out the rest of your childhood
Get it together
Let the senioritis sink in
Forget Stanford
Sink into that money grab that is that big name school
Enjoy your freedom while you can
Because you will never see it again
Congrats Graduate
The world is watching you
Transcript: Who am I?
Who am I?
I look inside and outside of myself to find where I belong
I stand at center stage but I am told to move
I stand off to stage left
What about me is so hard to like?
I put on the best performance of my life
Yet you can't offer up a round of applause
I do everything in my power for you to like me
Where do I belong?
My identity is blurred between the lines of
Trying to please you or please me
I'm lost in a maze of trying to find myself
I'm stuck between you liking who I am and me liking who I am
I slowly am coming to the realize that I can not make us both happy
No matter how many shows I put on, you dislike them
I change the script but you still do not cheer
I change the stage,that does not matter
I am merely in a puppet show that you control
I am a dummy that you make talk
You are obsessed with criticizing my every move
You are my biggest critic
Maybe this is your way of giving me attention
I am tired of being your puppet
I have put on my final show for you
Others applaud
I must applaud you though
Through you I have answered the question
Who am I ?
