A Tribute To R.E.M.'s "Hope"

Here is the deal;
What I feel

The past cannot eat me alive
Memories are a curable disease

The Truth is most people I cannot please

I have chosen a path
Now I must deal with its wrath

"Hog-tied and accepting of the struggle"
Let them be;
But I will be free
Whatever the hell that means:

Search for Truth
Question my surroundings
Don't let convention make me afraid

When everyone asks why;
I tell them

When everyone tells me;
I ask why?

No, I was not born to fly
But Daddy forced me not to cry

In the end,
All I can do is try
