Been there, Felt that
In life you need to feel wanted
Or considered part of a group
Just to try something new
But people can manipulate and tell you what to do
Silly you, for listening to
What they have to say
It’s done this way
No, like this
No, not like that
You just don’t get it
What, are you stupid?
People say
They
Try to make groups
To stay out of the loops.
The knots you get caught in
Just trying to fit in
But you still listen to what the group has to say
It’s done this way
No, like this
No, not like that
You just don’t get it
What, are you stupid?
I know how you feel
Don’t want to say, lips tightly sealed?
Think they’re your friends
Because you hang out with them
But they lie and take advantage of you
You do what they want because they pressure you to.
I know what you’re going through
I know what’s been said to you
I want to help, really I do
But you have to take action too
Speak out!
You can’t hide from the truth
Listen to what I’m saying
To those people, you were just some sort of play thing
But we can all make a difference now
All those kids, getting pushed around
They will stand up and fight for what they believe in
The innocent are not to be picked on, this will be put to an end.
