The Constant

I will graciously accept that my life's work

whether it be

In the past

the present

or the future will be overshadowed by those around me

With a different definition of "success." Though I can't explain the path I've

Chosen

all I know is I'm right where I need to be. And though I've turned down

A chance at fame and fortune

I know that there is no greater payment than

This. And I'm so fucking far from the life I'm supposed to lead

and the man

I'm supposed to be and I couldn't be happier. And I will remain a constant

I

Know where I stand

and I refuse to let their selfishness take control of who I

Am. While I may die poor

at least my life had meaning

there's more to life

Than living

and I truly feel alive. And I know that when I die

there will be

Others who feel the same way ready to take my place. This is our song of

Protest. I promise you that nothing is slowing us down. While I may die poor

At least my life had meaning

there's more to life than living and I truly feel

Alive. And I know that when I die

there will be others who feel the same way

Ready to take my place. I will laugh in the face of those who tell me

Different. Even with both of my feet planted firmly on the ground

I am free to

Move in my own direction. I will remain a constant. I know where I stand.
