The painting under "But will you always stay someone else's dream of who you are?" depicts Pygmalion, a Greek mythological character, who created a sculpture that came to life.
The illustration under "Do what's good for you, or you're not good for anybody" refers to advice that's sometimes given to parents or to people who care more about others than themselves: when you travel with a child on a plane and the air pressure fails, you have to put on your own oxygen mask before you can help the child ...
I do not claim to own the music or most of the pictures I used, I just put things together like this

lyrics
James...we were always friends,
From our childhood days
And we made our plans,
And we had to go our seperate ways.
I went on the road
You pursued an education.
James...do you like your life,
Can you find release,
And will you ever change
Will you ever write your masterpiece.
Are you still in school
Living up to expectations...James...
You were so relied upon, everybody knows how hard you tried-
Hey...just look at what a job you've done,
Carrying the weight of family pride.
James...you've been well behaved,
You've been working so hard
But will you always stay
Someone else's dream of who you are.
Do what's good for you, or you're not good for anybody...James.
I went on the road
You pursued an education...James...
How you gonna know for sure-everything was so well organized.
Hey...now everything is so secure,
and everybody else is satisfied.
James...do you like your life,
Can you find release
And will you ever change,
When will you write your masterpiece.
Do what's good for you, or you're not good for anybody...James...
