More.

life is not what you think it is
life is something more

you wake up to the same routines
this life is such a bore

eat your breakfast
to get your protein

all this just to survive

you just want some candy
but mommy says no
eat your vegetables, honey
you must grow

go to school
to get your education
learn your abc’s and your 123’s
you’ll need this in the real world, your teacher says 

life is tough
with lots of obstacles 
but you just want to dodge them
play on the swing sets instead 
high, high, higher you go

life is not what you think it is 
life is something more 

you say yes because you can’t say no
you eat your veggies cause you’re afraid you won’t grow

don’t wanna seem stupid, so you learn what you’re taught 
dad says you won’t be successful if you don’t buy it before it’s bought

you’re taught to do what you’re told 
life’s only good if you’re gold

but life is not what you think it is
life is something more 

if you live like you’re told
it will always be a bore
