When I was just a young girl
I had so many hopes and dreams to fulfill in this world
But as the years passed and I aged
The life I was living was a life that was caged
Always trying to put a smile on my face to mask my rage
I thought it may be just a phase and I would grow out of that stage
Then I opened my eyes to the reality of how this world goes round
Everything that seems to be in reach is always just out of bounds
So no matter how hard I try
When I am unsuccessful I do not give up but simply retry
I become more determined than ever before
Whatever I cannot have makes me want it that much more
For there should be no limits for certain opportunities
There should be an equal chance for everyone to succeed
But what is and what should be are two different things
Sometimes I feel we are just puppets controlled by invisible strings.
