new song: Wanna Bee

note: I’ve started a new blog for metaphysics… this is still my place for songs, poems and whatever.

Wanna Bee

I was named for the actress of the day
I was always an extra in the play
I thought I was dreamin,’
inside I was screamin’
And all around me, I heard people say

Hey Debbie, hey Debbie
–no, I don’t mean you
there’s always a Debbie
there’s nothin’ special ’bout you

But what about me, when am I gonna be?
This dream can’t be true, what do I do?
– Here’s what I did

I moved to an island in the strait
I gave my name as Phoenix
tried to change my fate
There’s something in a name
I was born again
And all around me, I heard people say

Hey Phoenix, yeah Phoenix
I’ve heard about her
but no one knows Phoenix
just a mythical bird

Well what about me? When am I gonna be?
This dream is real, I know what I feel
– I wanna be…

I moved from my island to the town
took a baby step, then I fell right down
confusion was the cause, about who I was
and all around, I imagined people say

Hey wannabe, you wannabe
who do you think you are
Hey wannabe, you wannabe
don’t expect to get far

Well what about you, don’t you wanna be too?
This dream might be real, how do you feel
do you wanna be
do you wanna be free?

Now I live between islands, stretching wide
In between, devotion and destiny collide
Time for another change, identity rearrange,
And this time, it will be my turn to say

I am a Bee, I am a Bee
I’m a buzz in your ear
Oh finally, I am a Bee
ain’t no strangers round here
It’s only me, me and the bees,
oh honey so sweet, I am complete
me and the bees
come buzzin’ with me
