unbroken spoke ok
favor feature hope holded rope foil recoil undulled
daunted task flaunted mask mass master ask for asteroid
annoyed karate kid id ego freeload Bilbo bagging
groceries grossly rosemary fairly expose less pretty
Parker Posey rosy reason reset season seeming teaming
germs harm hard perm firm earth girth gross host
almost boast beast
no unity taught everyone they
are unique special can do anything everyone wants
to be the king TV taught me kids with more options
kids that make more mistakes learned life lessons
at age 8 eighteen mid life crisis information revelation
expectation increasing at ex-speeding rate kilometer
down to millimeters depleting space forced face
to face hate festers brought to the surface
brain purge problem budge solemn
seldom held on gone gown column fallen all in trouble
callin' crisis bubble iceless ledger only clever
cut off often lost path sloth uncertain certain
situations statute regroup uprooted routed doubted
loud annoying knowing nothing failure flirted first
fist found wall ground grill expected and received
worst cursed comedy
the visions gone the wisdom
of Darwinism dig ourselves into the deepest chasm
reassuring heart spasm down a fathom see the light
only a glimmer of knight dark ages grows to a new
dawn always awake at the race following the chase
chose to be wrong long ago weight for understanding
crushing hopes set high by hollywood standards dropping
depression sets in easily on dramatics turn drastic
can't deal with disappointment
naturally neutral crucial rural
real world but you weren't certain setting letting
steam glean clean dreamed dream drown dreaded let
it get forget it better welded wield shield field
quelled quarrel borrow sorrow harrow losses stare
rare tomorrow fairer fortunefull failure torture
ravish radishes rehash on rashadash
everyone wants to the be the
same someone anyone hear me or do I have to make
a bang get my frame broadcast to the nation notation
apologize to relation as I rest in the final destination
destiny foreseen tragedy the pain felt by every
body and the dreams only remind us of the pain sleep
to wake day to day day to day sleep to wake work
to play work to pay repeat what I say repeat what
I say

Fu's verses address an interesting
issue. It discusses the "army of one"
mentality. How everyone feels they deserve to be
rich and famous based on being fed those ideas as
ideology in this american culture as depicted by
the entertainment industry and, in general, how
the youth of today are raised and deceived to believe
they can grow up to be whatever they want and do
(meaning in job terms) what they want to do. Who
will be the janitors if everyone is taught growing
up that you can/should/deserve to be a doctor? We
need to be realistic with these kids and tell them
to prepare for mediocrity. If they ascend that mediocrity
then great, it will be even more satisfying, but
if they didn't, well then it's what they would have
been taught to expect. I guess that's a pretty negative
outlook, no?
Other then that, it is what it is. I mentioned "Bilbo
bagging groceries" referencing, obviously,
Bilbo Baggens and the fact that I was working at
a photo counter at the time.
