Following a certain norm?
Might as well live eternally in a dorm.
If someone dictates your form,
Then there will be a never-ending storm

As irrational as it may seem,
Reality should be in line with my dream
Why should everybody swim following the stream?
And in one's lifetime, sewing the same seam?

Conform, conform, conform, that's what they suggest
Just merely hearing it brings horrible scars forming deep in my chest
Conform conform conform, wear it like your everyday vest
And you can be positive that you will be abundantly blessed

See, if everyone perfectly follows through,
Then they say you will be your most you
We can all be a part of the bigger contraption as a *****
And live the rest of our days like the animals in the zoo

Frustration is my biggest emotion
Because opposition is my only option
If I am alone in this perilous motion
Then in this mission i must offer my biggest devotion

Almost everybody desires change
But mostly their comfortable lives, they would not exchange
Nobody can really do anything in the same driving range
And almost a few are bold enough to act strange

Who am I to start, I don't know any better
But all i see in this world is an enormous continent of fetter
Each and everyone stand together
In different walks of life, writing the same letter

At times, my hopelessness gets the best of me
Most times I crave to be swayed by the sea
In the world that requires everything to come with a fee
All the time, I long so badly to break free

Being capable of nothing drives me completely ill
I do everything in my power for my mind to be chill
Personally I don't always go for something so swill
But whatever I can bring requires a universal skill

Reality is in fact, a tragic scene
Since everybody bows down to the queen
Stuck inside a perfectly molded screen
But who am I to talk, I am just a choice-less teen
