This is my hate anthem. Hear my roar.

It's about obsessing over the definition of beauty.
It's about worshiping what we can never be. Hollywood.
It's about brand names, spending money to feel validated.
It's about what you have, not the company you keep.
It's about being a hypocrite, wanting to stay ignorant, to hide from accountability.
It's about the white picket fence, the 2.3 children, the tire swing in the backyard.
It's called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.

It's about losing who you are to be someone else.
It's about not knowing who you are.
It's about needing others to feign self confidence.
It's about money.
