So... I was introduced to this song by a friend of mine named Ebony. It's called Wind. I'm not sure who it's by, but I know it appeared as an ending on one of the Naruto seasons.
It says:
Cultivate your hunger, before you idealize
Motivate your anger, to make them all realize
Climbin' the mountain, never coming down
Break into the contents, never falling down.

My knee is still shaking, like I was twelve
Sneaking out the classroom, by the backdoor
A man railed at me twice, though, but I didn't care
Waiting is wasting for people like me

Don't try to live so wise
Don't cry 'cause you're so right
Don't dry with fakes or fears
'Cause you will hate yourself in the end

Don't try to live so wise
Don't cry 'cause you're so right
Don't dry with fakes or fears
'Cause you will hate yourself in the end

You say, "Dreams are dreams"
"I ain't gonna play the fool, anymore"
You say, "'Cause I still got my soul"

Take your time, baby, your blood needs slowing down
Breach your soul to reach yourself before you gloom
Reflection of fear makes shadows of nothing
Shadows of nothing

You still are blind, if you see a winding road
'Cause there's always a straight way to the point you see

Don't try to live so wise
Don't cry 'cause you're so right
Don't dry with fakes or fears
'Cause you will hate yourself in the end

Don't try to live so wise
Don't cry 'cause you're so right
Don't dry with fakes or fears
'Cause you will hate yourself in the end

I mention cause there's a lot in the song that speaks to me. For one, just this small part, "Waiting is wasting for people like me". And of course the theme of the song is living in the chorus. It's all about being who you are, even though everyone wants you to be so different. There's a ton of pressure to act like you're something you're not, and to be something more then you are, but when you give into that pressure, you cease to be an individual and it only causes you more pain then you had in the first place.
