Born a life, 9 to 5 Gonna work 'till you die Gonna hurt Gonna learn to take it like a man Find a girl, make a wife Dig a fence, paint it white What if I had another plan? But what if I was made for the stage What if I was made for the lights What if I was chosen to write the stories Wasn't built to work the line Oh, what if I was different (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Would I wanna be different? (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Man, it's cold, crack a dawn Hear that old rooster crow Coffees on and ain't it never gonna change Another night, samefight Same girl, same guy What if I wanna break the mundane What if I was made for the stage What if I was made for the lights What if I was chosen to write the stories Wasn't built to work the line Oh, what if I was different (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Would I wanna be different? (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Feels like I'm stuck in this rut Tryin' to spin my way out, I can't figure it out Don't know how How I'm supposed to tell mama and daddy Without them mad at me but I'm breaking down I'm breaking down But what if I was made for the stage What if I was made for the lights What if I was chosen to write the stories Wasn't built to work the line Oh, what if I was different (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Would I wanna be different? (Whoa, whoa, whoa) I wanna be different (Whoa, whoa, whoa) I wanna be different (Whoa, whoa, whoa)
