When you’re the boss you can pick and choose
No matter whom else that has to loose
The one that’s the best gets the spot or the fame
That’s not always true but I can’t complain
People are pasted up it’s all just the same
Never given a chance to add to the game
They might be the one to break through to the front
Instead of a homerun their forced to bunt
Bosses and people can change your day and your night
But don’t let them keep you from doing what’s right
The best is not what I want to be
Good enough to be happy is enough for me
To make myself and my parents proud
Not to be just one of the crowd
People make changes in my life you see
Because they think their better than me
This they are not and I know for sure
I don’t change my ways to open the door
I don’t lie or cheat to get to the top
If that’s what it takes I’ll come to a stop
And people will always change your stride
Don’t change your values or loose your pride
Something’s are yours and not to be changed
Compromise for them but don’t rearrange
