Famous Little Fish

Look at the poor goldfish in that tank
tired of predictability, his flake dinner already sank
he'll end up in oceans, maybe when he's gone
but for the life he's been living, what has he done

I wonder if he knows he'll never amount to much?
Does he not long for something bigger?

I don't wanna end up like a goldfish
complacent and replaceable
I'd like to be a little fish with wild colors in the sea
and everyone would take pictures of me
I'd be a famous little fish and change the ocean for good
A goldfish wouldn't but a famous one could
I know I could

Goldfish remind me of being lukewarm
a repetitive process of those who are torn
they ride the fence but they're alright with glass bowl
strapped in tap water, instead of swimming in schools

I wonder if they care about amounting to much?
Do these people not long for anything bigger?

Don't let me become a goldfish, God
I've got too much left to do in my life
I've got too many people to reach and too many lives to touch
Don't let me become a goldfish, God
I've got too much left to do in my life
I've got too many people to reach
and too many fishbowls to break
