I want to be a tiger 

To be free to be calm

To see the world with its beauty 

To roll around in the grass

To chase birds and never stop

To have a friend to play with

To not worry about

Having to be perfect 

To not have to be told what to do 

For this world to realize that you 

Can be free even if you don't think so 

I want to escape 

I want to leave the dirty, polluted city and

Go to the Savana or even the rainforest 

And lunge around all day doing nothing

I want to escape 

Manners and rules 

I want to be able to be 

Curious without people shutting me down

I want to be able to 

Be me and not be frightened to

Be judged

To be able to fulfill my dreams without 

People blowing them out 

I am going to be a tiger 

And no one will know me
