I’m starting to think I was never meant for this,
Where ambition isn’t enough you have to know who pulls the strings.
The lucky few are hand selected.
Well, fuck their point of view, it’s not objective.

I started this all so long ago, it seemed to take off without me.
Nothing has changed I’m still the same. I’m still running on empty.
The pressure has built up and is ready to explode. I can’t believe this is happening.
Nothing has changed I’m still the same, except no one is laughing.

There’s no turning back, you’ve already jumped in.
If ambition starts to fade, who cares? You’re well connected.
They’ve all invested in you, now its sink or swim.
Fuck your “artistic view”; just do what they tell you.
