When I collect my third batch of inexpensive sunglasses from the same place at the mall, I think of you

When I'm crawling out of bed,

last night's sweat on my forehead texting long paragraphs

An easy fix will do?

A green smoothie or two?

That's what everyone tells you

When the corner shop that sells club mate hasn't open their blinds

can't they see the tears filling up my eyes?

Behind the sunglasses disguise

That's when I think of you, and what would you do

If you were in this situation?

What would you do

If you were in this situation?

What would you do

If you were in this situation?

What would you do

If you were in this situation?

What would you do?

If not you, then who?

If not now, then when?

(Who do you wanna be?)

If not you, then who?

If not you, then who?

(Who do you wanna be?)

If not you, then who?

If not now, then when?

(Who do you wanna be?)

If not you, then who?

I'll say it again

Who do you wanna be? Who, who, do you want to be? Who, who?

When I see another empty slogan tryna dictate my life,

can't you see my pockets are running dry?

A consumer consumed with the idea of a good time

Exhausted by the pressure to feel somewhat empowered it's only 8AM

and I haven't even showered.

Guess perseverance is the boldest thing one can do.

When the movement becomes part of the patriarchal system we swore to tear down,

the left cuts down the left while the right upholds the crown

So what do we do?

So what do we do?

We're all in this situation

So what do we do?

If not you, then who?

If not now, then when?

(Who do you wanna be?)

If not you, then who?

If not you, then who?

(Who do you wanna be?)

If not you, then who?

If not now, then when?

(Who do you wanna be?)

If not you, then who?

I'll say it again

Who do you wanna be? Who, who, do you want to be?

Who, who, do you want to be? Who, who?

Do you want to be? Who, who?

Do you wanna be?
