PRETENDER

Bandwagon jumping, the fans are coming in now,
Vent session bumping... guess its time to pretend now;
Cause the further I go the more they want to know, and I haven't done enough in order to have a show;
So I'm pretending to be a star...pretending to go far,
In order to drive a car way above par;
Lessons learned and questions turned into statements,
Testing the wine at black and white tie banquets;
No longer speaking truth for my peer delinquents,
Now I am just speaking nonsense to make sense;
Remembered when recording was done in basements,
Now the professional moves are made and the fun no longer exist;
"Who is this who is this? this kid who thinks big"
The kid who hates kids who thinks fibs;
Now he makes lies to surprise business guys,
Through those times where he needs favors and more tries;
I am the challenges of many defenders,
And the ultimate contradiction of many pretenders;
