In our attempt to create a normal society
We imprison the dreamers, the believers,
And those who see things inversely;
We pretend to listen, yet we’ve voluntarily
Become deaf to originality.

In our attempt to build a functional society
We close the door on diversity;
We repeat historic mistakes and faulty,
But somehow, we have the audacity to question, “What is wrong?”
And somehow we obtain some authority to answer, “Well, it can’t be me!”
When in reality, it is the power of superiority that engulfs our minds,
Subconsciously, we yield.
Giving into a power, that paints a veil over our already skewed sight.

In various paces,
We become individuals who attempt to create a controlled, domestic clan;
Hoping to one day lead a world-wide sorority –
A sorority of people who walk in line;
Who are being shaped by the guidelines of another man’s agenda;
Who are living a life planned out by someone else
Like me,
A leader.
