Don't believe what they sayTry to go your own wayYou would be surprised by the truthPull your head
out of the sand because it'sTime to be your own
manThis is not the time to be couth in your youthShrinking Violets are what you areWilting flowers afraid
of the worldStand up spread out plant your roots in the
groundBe yourself and bring colors into the worldDon't let another day go byLooking for an alibiThey don't understand me and youNo need to
apologize For the fire in your eyesLet it burn all
the way through intoShrinking Violets are what you
areWilting flowers afraid of the worldStand up
spread out plant your roots in the groundBe yourself and
bring colors into the worldI should know because
I've wilted and closedNow I walk this road with
strings and timpaniPut a smile on your face While you keep a faster paceMedicate the rest with a
pillDrop that walk awayFind another job
todayWith whatever passion you will fulfillShrinking Violets are what you areWilting flowers afraid
of the worldStand up spread out plant your roots in the
groundBe yourself and bring colors into the world
