Don't want a life like my parents had   Don't want a life like my rich friends have   Don't want to live by association   Don't want to live the great maybe   I want a life not a name online   I want to live it in real time   I want a life just so I can be   I never asked what was in it for me      Stealing from a thief   My humanity   I know my name, I know my pain   I know my frequency   Dancing with the beast      As a kid I'd play make believe   As a man I play make believe   As a kid I'd do anything   As a man I do everything      I live my life centered and humane   I live my life like a man insane      I get up, I get up and go   I grab a hold and reach way down   To find something that I really believe   I don't need to console myself   If I don't like what I see
