People talk.
If you talk too little,
You are antisocial.
If you talk too much,
You are a chatterbox.
"Blame society"
People like music artists.
If you show dedication to them,
You are obsessed.
If you know nothing about them,
You are a "fake fan".
"Blame society"
People do what they want.
If you don't do drugs or alcohol,
You are lame and uncool.
If you do drugs or alcohol,
You are a disappointment and a failure.
"Blame society"
People have relationships
If you want a relationship,
You are "thirsty".
If you want to be single,
You are "forever alone".
"Blame society"
People hurt others.
If others tell you to kill yourself,
It's perfectly fine.
If you actually do commit suicide,
Those who were the cause of it feel sorry.
"Blame society"
People have knowledge.
If you know information from a variety of subjects,
You are a know-it-all.
If you know little to nothing about something,
You are stupid.
"Blame society"
People care for themselves
If you care for yourself too much,
You are conceited.
If you care for yourself too little,
You are timid.
"Blame society"
People take risks.
If you take too many risks,
You are crazy.
If you take too little risks,
You are a Scaredy-cat 
"Blame society"
When something happens,
People often blame society.
But then again, who is society?
Society isn't the girl next door
Or the mayor or president.
Society is us, the people.
People create the rules,
On how we are to live our lives.
"Society" limits us
From being ourselves,
And expressing our thoughts out into the world.
Imagine life without “society”,
Being able to be who you want
Without the fear of being judged.
Many want to fix "society",
But alas,
It's impossible to do with this brainwashed generation.
