Songs about being overworked/changing who you are?

Hello!

I'm putting together a sort of fan-jukebox-musical playlist for my D&D character, and there's one section in his life where he's being trained as a new member of a guild. He's supposed to be the leader's protégé, and so there's a ton of pressure put on him to be absolutely flawless. Sort of Be More Chill vibes, but ideally I'd like for the lyrics to be less specific to high school?? Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!!

Not really about being overworked/changing who you are but based on your brief above “Perfect” from Jagged Little Pill may work!

Hamilton's "Say No To This". Beginning part is about an overworked Hamilton ... and sadly this song describes the change in his life as a result of being overworked and away from his wife :/
