Under Control

Check another box
It's another test
Much how impressed they are with how I've progressed

Go the extra mile
Make a better plan
Be the poster child for if he can then you can
So much improvement in such a hurry
Goal after goal after goal
I aced my ACT's
But still I worry
Is this all there is?
Everything under control

Get the perfect score
Attend the perfect school
Learn to decipher each new invisible rule
Hide away the flaws
I don't want the world to see
Do the best impression of what my parents want of me

So much improvement it all gets blurry
Goal after goal after goal
They say I'm going far but still I worry
The bottom will drop
If I ever stop keeping
Everything under control

Taking authority some recognition
Goal after goal after goal
They say adulthood is a tough transition
Is this what I want? (So much I want?)
What about what I want? (Goal after goal after goal)
Am I doing this right?
Is everything under control?

Trust what they say
Trust that they know
Just because I got in
Does that mean I have to go?
The expectations are always rising
Goal after goal after goal
Is that why winning feels like compromising?
The trophy in hand
Unlike somebody else plan
Is this what I want?

Everything under control
Everything under control
Everything
Under control
