There is no way I will ever obey
The present course of my growing nation
I hope I will not ever fade away
In ever increasing relaxation

I hope one day I will be rather brave
One day soon I will be a director
Progressing on just to maybe engrave
My life not as some loser perfecter

Not looking to become a billionaire
Or play endless hours on PlayStation
I just want to be somewhere, anywhere
Where hurt is my only destination

I want to grow up to be so sincere
And I do not turn out to love cashmere

Actually, I had to do this for school. It was going to be a drag until I found it was somewhat enjoyable, once you understand how to do it.
