Trying in vain To prove you're something special Playing the game Knowing you're bound to lose Through years of frustration Going against the wall Still trying to make it Still standing tall It's not about who you are It's all about who you know Where do you go When everything depends on others Striving again To prove you've got a point It's so insane When talent means nothing Through years of hard working Swimming against the mainstream Someday you will make it It's more than just a dream It's not about who you are It's all about who you know Where do you go When everything depends on others Trying in vain Playing the game Striving again It's so insane It's not about who you are It's all about who you know Where do you go When everything depends on others When everything depends on others
