actress
I always wanted to be an actress
My daddy told me no
He told me to be practical
I was 12 years old
Growing up I tried to
Do what I was told
And every day I find myself getting further from that goal
People ask me if I'm happy
I almost never am
Living is surviving
And that's my only plan
I like to wonder how I got here
But I've always been this way
Some people are meant to teach
I was meant to be onstage
What if there was a way that I could escape
Escape
And all I had to do was
Step right into a little bit of fame
Of fame
Think far ahead he told me
You have to plan or you'll be
All out on your own
With no idea where to go
Sometimes it's hard to plan
If you don't like the life you're in
It's a battle in my head
And he'll say he doesn't understand
What if there was a way that all that could change
Could change
And all I had to do was get people to remember my name
My name
Not now he said
Maybe later
Just wait
Just wait to be happy
That's how the world works
You suffer first
Before you get to do
What you actually want to
My daddy told me no
He told me to be practical
I was 12 years old
Growing up I tried to
Do what I was told
And every day I find myself getting further from that goal
People ask me if I'm happy
I almost never am
Living is surviving
And that's my only plan
I like to wonder how I got here
But I've always been this way
Some people are meant to teach
I was meant to be onstage
What if there was a way that I could escape
Escape
And all I had to do was
Step right into a little bit of fame
Of fame
Think far ahead he told me
You have to plan or you'll be
All out on your own
With no idea where to go
Sometimes it's hard to plan
If you don't like the life you're in
It's a battle in my head
And he'll say he doesn't understand
What if there was a way that all that could change
Could change
And all I had to do was get people to remember my name
My name
Not now he said
Maybe later
Just wait
Just wait to be happy
That's how the world works
You suffer first
Before you get to do
What you actually want to
