Painted smiles and rehearsed lines
Playing roles we didn't choose
Climbing ladders to nowhere
In shoes that never quite fit
But inside, a voice is screaming
For a life that's true
Trapped in expectations' cage
Longing to turn the page
Society's script, not my own
Seeds of doubt I've sown
Do I dare to break free?
Or forever live a life that's not me
Success defined by others' rules
Dreams replaced by golden chains"Should" and"must" echo loud
Drowning out my inner sound
But inside, a voice is screaming
For a life that's true
Trapped in expectations' cage
Longing to turn the page
Society's script, not my own
Seeds of doubt I've sown
Do I dare to break free?
Or forever live a life that's not me
In the mirror, a stranger stares
Wearing a mask of others' cares
But beneath this crafted disguise
A true self yearns to rise
The path less traveled calls my name
Risking judgment, embracing shame
To live authentic, bold and free
Becoming who I'm meant to be
Trapped in expectations' cage
Longing to turn the page
Society's script, not my own
Seeds of doubt I've sown
Do I dare to break free?
Or forever live a life that's not me
Breaking free from expectations' cage
It's time to write my own page
