Lyrics
VERSE 1
Generation Y-O-U and Me
obsessed with reality tv
living life vicariously
thru the characters that we see
everyday life is like an episode
one follow one like a steppin' stone
waiting for someone to break the mold
in with the new and out with the old
PRE
What's it gonna be, Now is the time to see some change.
Things aren't what they seem, it's time to rearrange
VERSE 2
I want you to know the power of me
without having to hear all the negativity
About what I say or what I do
Don't feed me my image, that's not who I am
Don't wanna be pretty, don't give a damn
What they think of me
I wanna see me in a magazine
PRE
What's it gonna be, Now is the time to see some change.
Things aren't what they seem, it's time to rearrange
CHORUS
Taking a good look in the mirror
Understanding who I see
'Cause the message that I'm getting
It doesn't look a thing like me
I'm not here for your amusement
Some empty model fantasy
'Cause the message that you're getting
It doesn't look a thing like me
