When I was 13 years old
I was live on the cage
The cage that others create just for me

I do what I should do
I do what they want me to do
I do what is written for me to do

But

My instinct always tell me the opposite

I want to do what I really want to do
I want to do what my heart tells me to do
I want to do what exactly should I do

Instead of following my own voice

I was trapped on the cage and doing nothing but follow all instruction

Just like an animal in the zoo

They were taming for being the one other want to be

Jump to the ring of fire
Blow this trumpet
Catch that ball
Bring it back

So the audience will be happy to see you

They do what the instructor tells them to do

for food
for a place to sleep
So they don't make them starving
So they give them a shelter

Just like me

I was taming for being the one they want me to be

Be a girl
Don't be so loud
Stay still
A girl should be silent and graceful
Act nicely
Wear a dress, not a beggar-like-clothes

So I will be happy to have you

I do all that they told me to do

For their sake
For their happiness
So they won't be sad
So they won't be ashamed to have me

But the question is

Did it really make you happy?

Why always doing something for other happiness instead of our happiness?

So when you will doing something forsake and your own happiness
