Wishing to be myself
Not some little clone
I don't want to be a chess piece
I want to be the player
But that doesn't seem possible
I'm going to try
My hand at playing this game
I'm not going to be a piece
Something someone else controls
I'm going to be a player
I'll be fair
I'll be honest
I'll be patient
But now I'm going to study the game
So I guess I'm going to just keep wishing
