I am an actor

I am an actor.

I demand respect.

I demand to be treated like a professional. 

I am an actor.

I would love a part. 

Any part, sure, would be great!

I am so grateful to you oh mighty one

Who hath given me a part.

Is the part what it seems though?

Is this part so high and so mighty 

To put you up on that cliff?

You who has given me a chance

In this questionable field…

Actually,

You there,

Get down off that cliff.

I am not here because of you.

I am here because of me.
