I choose to be meIn a world where others disguise who they truly areLiving a facade to hide any imperfections or scarsPressured to live their life just like everyone else
Along every highway and every back road
I see my love for home slowley start to fold
Every state line, every different license plate
My yearning for the desert sunrise starts to fade
Excellence
That's what we all want
To be the alpha dogs
To be the best
The greatest
And sometimes
It feels essential
Like we need perfection in our lives
But the truth is
Is life like a church, you hear the choir singing,
Or is it like a large city where you hear a woman screaming?
Is it like the woods, solitary from the world,
Or is it like the waves, whipped and whirled?
