Society

A rigid square of expectations

A half-heartedly given education

Conforming to the population

Held back by the limitations

You've broken the square and people stare

You've found your passion and become aware

That people today are hardly there

And that people today are never fair

They've beaten you down for not conforming

As if they want to make you a warning

This is what you get for not performing

Now they prepare you for the reforming

You try again and try in vain

Your words fall on deaf ears just the same

They want nothing to do with what's in your brain

Ignorance is the only way they can stay sane

Finally you give up; you're finally done

Your rebellion ended before it begun

Even though all it takes is a small number of one

The pressure is what made you come undone

A rigid square of expectations

A half-heartedly given education

Conforming to the population

Held back by the limitations
