This Is How It's Got To Be

Socrates I choose to be one day,
Einstein maybe some other day,
Qualities I pick from you,
Decide to keep them a day or two,
Sadness on my part when I finally realize,
On the inside I am made up of lies,
My thoughts began to wind down like an aged clock,
With each twist producing a reality shock,
I choose not to be me,
But that is how it's got to be.
