Main Stream, a Life You Chose to Waste

Be what you need to be, not what they want to see. Starting off young, being pressured to follow main stream looks. Crooks, they spoiled the unique looks.
Main Stream, a Life You Chose to Waste
These books, they all speak of love and flawless looks.
What type of crooks real you in on hooks?
These lives are already being led by those who physically, should be dead.
Trying to follow their dedicated pace, while becoming a dieing race.

In such haste, its life they chose to waste.
But just in case, there is a way to live free of someone else's taste.
For those of us who stray away, to explore out on our own way
There are many a day to stand up and say, "hey, I'll do it my way"

For me, I've done this sinse day three, just like a single tree in a world of glee.
Day one, Was purely just for fun
Day two, the routine was turning into some sort of pun
Now its time to run; Be what you need to be, not what they want to see.
