People scream.
People shout.
People dream.
People pout.

They all want what they can't have.
They cry when they should laugh.
How can we be all that we can be?
We can reach the magnificence that I see.

Stop whining and fight.
Stop sitting around and at least try.
We're not going to be anything unless we go.
We're not going to get applause unless we finish the show.

Bring up all your courage and release.
Don't be afraid, smile, love, and then repeat.
I dropped out of school. Now, alone I stand.
Don't follow in my footsteps. It's not very grand.

I couldn't handle the challenge of being in school.
I thought dropping out would be cool.
I'm smart and I'm bright.
But, without education, I doubt that I will ever see the light.

You all should take this as a lesson.
What we all need in our lives is progression.
Moving from the bottom to the very top.
Just cease the jealousy and anger and don't stop.
