modern kids
in today’s world
virtual reality kids
millions on tv
billion dollar bids
everyone is in a race
all on different teams
based on colors and features
superficial dreams
a reason to be better
whatever it takes to win
the team with the biggest guys
the team I’m going to be in
mediocre in the masses
its those who are free
who practice themselves
content just to be
those individual faces
that stand out in the crowd
the minority of masses
unable to speak aloud
pressure to stay ahead
tv tells us not to lose
showing you the danger
of being free to choose
to leave the race
hand in your shoes
its not about trying to win
just who doesn’t lose
