Active Protagonist (Making Changes) [Worktape]

You could say I lost the plot
I've been writing this show for way too long
The stories got thin
Like, the good guys win every week
It's the same damn thing again and again

They're sayin' I lost my mind
Why change what stood the test of time?
The Hollywood dream must've died for me
I'm looking for something to make me feel like
An active protagonist
Gotta find a new groove

I've been making changes
Someone call my agent
Looking for that new twist
That I've been dreaming of
Aching for a new start
Ready for a spin-off
All my friends been asking where I've been for so long
I've been making changes, yeah

I don't know when my passion died
There's a lot of people trying to come for the ride
They say you're friends
But they feign offense
When you really get real about anything

Maybe it's time to jump the shark
Like a multiverse mind job in my heart
I'm a variant of me
To a varying degree, you may or may not agree
That it's cool to be
An active protagonist
But I'm done with you

I've been making changes
Cranking out some pages
Working on that new script
That I've been putting off
Aching for a new start
Ready for a spin-off
All my friends been asking if I wrote them a part
I've been making changes, yeah

An active protagonist
An active protagonist

I've been making changes
Like really chasing pages
I don't really care if my friends check out this song

I've been making changes
Someone call my agent
Finally found that new twist
And it's been paying off
Aching for a new start
Ready for a spin-off
My real friends all know it 'cause they're singing along
I've been making changes, ooh yeah

You could say I lost the plot
I've been writing this show way too long
They're sayin' I lost my mind
Why change what stood the test of time?
