Grasping

I want to take the world on in a fight
And I want my name to be the one in lights
But I also want to make the world right
And I want to be someone who saves a life tonight
The mental, dichotomy, that's causing me
To lie awake and scream myself to sleep
And force myself to think that I am nothing more
Than selfish deeds disguised as loving life, and other people
Someone please tell me what I need to do
To be at peace

I never understood why I wanted the fame
Why I'm not just as happy with old whats-her-name
In a house by the lane
With three kids playing games
And a job with no name, lame
I want an empire, sky high
Not a fly-by, make my dad cry
Tears of joy, and pride
Win at life, change the tide
Of the lives that I touch
Damn, is that too much?
