I wonder about life
It's so damn complex!
Most music is crap
On TV, only sex
Some people, today
Stand out from the crowd
They might be small or shy
But actions speak loud
I wonder about me
And what the future holds
I take a quick stab
And try to be bold
Today in this world
I find one person who
Had a normal life once
Like both me and you
This person inspired me
To be who I am
Not some stupid wannabe
Or a facsimile of a sham
Rising to stardom
From a place in the South
Called North Carolina
He's equipped with a mouth
The mouth emits sound
The sound melts my heart
My heart tries to tell me
Don't follow, stand apart!
He found a special place
Working with children
Who can't live normal lives
Like you and I can
The person's Clay Aiken
I knew you'd agree
He inspired many
Especially me
It's so damn complex!
