Barrier Of Statistics

This is a song about how I don't want to be just another mark on the board and settle for average like everyone else that I know.

Verse 1:

 

We live in a world of yesterdays

And nobody seems to care to stop and think

We all go on just like we do each day

What would we say if we would just stop and let ourselves feel

 

Chorus:

 

Life is o so typical

What it expects from you is what it expects from me too

And I hope, I pray that I can be a change and break the barrier of statistics

In this o so typical life

 

Verse 2:

 

Ignorance is all around us

What is done and said I honestly don't know it's meaning anymore,

Anyway I see it careing these days is just the opposite.

 

(Guitar)

 

Verse 2:

 

They say love and compassion go hand and hand, together they are key

But what the hell does that really mean

Everyone is affected but apparently not enough to change

It's up to me to somehow reach the world and change the way we think

And I hope, I pray we can just let ourselves feel

 

Chorus:

 

Life is o so typical

What it expects from you is what it expects from me too

And I hope, I pray that I can be a change and break the barrier of statistics

In this o so typical life

[Jesse Ampe]

This is probably my most favorite out of all the songs I have written so far. The inspiration of this one is very dear to me. A few months ago at my high school we had a program come to our school called Rachel's Challenge in memory of Rachel Scott; the kind girl who died in the Colombine shooting. She wanted to do what she could do reach people with nothing but kindness and an open heart and that is exactly the person I strive to be.
