Live for Youself

May 30, 2009
By Anonymous

A dying nation
A crying nation
We're living in the sidewalk cracks
With weeds and dirt
and half chewed gum
Being stepped on by america
Society is killing us
Discrimination
Segregation
Annihilation
You're letting them tell you what to do
What's acceptable
and whats taboo
STOP!
Do what you want
Think your own thoughts
Don't hide your feelings
Live for yourself
STOP!
No one can tell you who to love
No one can tell you how to dress
No one can tell you who to be
THIS IS AN ESCAPE
THIS IS A JAIL BREAK
WE'RE TAKING BACK WHATS OURS
the loners, the freaks, the poets, the lovers
the liars, the artists, throw back your covers!
LET THEM DISCOVER
we were right all along
LET THEM DISCOVER
this is where we belong
