One day.
I'll be famous.
So famous,
Everyone knows my name.
So famous,
High school kids will write papers about me.
But what will they say i did in my childhood?
That i spent my time roaming aimlessly,
Around a town i just couldn't seem to get out of?
That i was just 'some kid',
A blank face?
A 'whatshername',
In a school of 300?
That i tried so hard,
But some people,
Just didn't notice?

&quot;My role in society, or any artist&#039;s or poet&#039;s role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all.&quot;
