It was never supposed to be so simple. You know, the conclusion crashing your illusion like the simile of waves to shores, because  we never dreamt that far. See, we were just kids with chips on our shoulders, no real reason to believe the world would get to know us. Frail, angry and pigeonholed. Where we're from, your intelligence is reflected through pigment and attempts to prove otherwise are met with ignorance. But I'm getting ahead of myself... it was never supposed to be so simple. The truth cracking the silence like symbols and we were just kids, wanting to be held by a world that didn't want us. A world that teaches us to be afraid of our thoughts, to fear independence, to stay kids... but it was never supposed to be so simple.
