My Walk of Stardom

Smile, laugh and never look down

Walk like a peacock and never wear a frown

The cameras are clicking, you must get it right

Don’t say the wrong words or you will lose your light

Perfection in the very meaning of the word

Your life must be graceful, gliding as a bird

Avoid the conversations that might cause controversy

No one needs to know your mental instability

Your fans will adore you in every kind of way

Be sensitive it only matters what they say

These are things I’m told everyday

Acting on-screen and in reality as well

Pretending I’m perfect and my life’s a living hell

Can’t go to school, exploited for my money

Then I am told it’s apart of business honey

I’m not so grown, I’m only fifteen

This is the reason I’m an object only to be seen

The adoring fans don’t see my cry, blinded by the things exposed to their eyes

I’m crying out for help, can somebody see me

I have no one, not even my family

I thought being actor would be my dream but not everything is gold though it gleams

Anxiety, depression becoming my best friend because all the human ones turned out fake in the end

I see myself on the television and I turn it off, cause I only see a player in a game Aloft

I play pretend with everyone I see, and no one sees the cage I’ve built around me

So let me act on in my walk of stardom, maybe one day I’ll take my freedom
