Questions

Am I? Am I?
Am I ever gonna be,
Anything that I wanted?
Am I? Am I?
Am I ever gonna be,
That name that is flaunted?
Why are we living,
In this world of confines?
Why are we breathing,
Lies from other minds?
Why do we go on,
Pretending we are all cattle?
We aren't even warriors,
Preparing for a worthwhile battle.
Am I? Am I?
Am I ever gonna be,
A blip on the radar of those who made a difference?
Am I? Am I?
Am I ever gonna be,
Worth my two cents?
Why are we so touched,
By music and movies and death,
But we cannot express ourselves,
Even with our final breath?
Why do we ignore one another,
Thinking that we matter more,
When everyone is a person,
Everyone is worth dying for?
Am I? Am I?
Am I ever gonna be,
That perfect image I created?
Am I? Am I?
Am I ever gonna be,
That which I thought I was fated?
Why do we crush others,
To make ourselves feel so tall?
Why do we admire others,
Because they can handle a ball?
Why is intellect so scarce,
And yet muscles are cheered?
Why is it the little things,
That we have always feared?
Am I? Am I?
Am I ever gonna be,
Feeling better than crappy?
Am I? Am I?
Am I ever gonna be,
Deep-down-inside happy?
