To be trapped in a body containing its own limits  While others trapped inside an open bottle  Both similar yet different People in bodies trapped can't aspire to break what can be broken Those trapped in a bottle can leave when they can shape themselves to leave the bottle that isn't closed But can't comprehend the shape What we seem to forget Is we are limitless in a reality deemed by culture and illusion To be produced and consumed  To fit any shape but not move You're not suffocating  I've moved air through clogged straw And still I stress  And I digress  Even when suicide is a mere option A cowardly choice some say Be glad Because when it seems bad It really is Then hysterically submit to convulsions And succumb to the shock These are our motives place by our limits in a society that doesn't exist  Like you It's man made

Social philosophies and limitations
To be trapped in a body containing its own limits  While others trapped inside an open bottle  Both similar yet different People in bodies trapped can't aspire to break what can be broken Those trapped in a bottle can leave when they can shape themselves to leave the bottle that isn't closed But can't comprehend the shape What we seem to forget Is we are limitless in a reality deemed by culture and illusion To be produced and consumed  To fit any shape but not move You're not suffocating  I've moved air through clogged straw And still I stress  And I digress  Even when suicide is a mere option A cowardly choice some say Be glad Because when it seems bad It really is Then hysterically submit to convulsions And succumb to the shock These are our motives place by our limits in a society that doesn't exist  Like you It's man made
