Don't let a piece of paper define you You write who you are You don't rub out You leave a mark Your romance carved into trees Your sadness watercolours of ink Your happiness an explosion of paint Your anger scrunched up beside the bin You write essays on stories you don't care for Read something that makes your heart cling to your chest seeking love Something that makes your brain question the very beauty of life Something that gives you goosebumps with feelings you cant explain They are scared of how strong you really are Schools don't educate they dictate Educate yourself You are the greatest teacher Your brain is the self made nuke They are scared you are going to blow A war that is your true self Its better to fight standing than fearing on your knees.

You Write Yourself.
Don't let a piece of paper define you You write who you are You don't rub out You leave a mark Your romance carved into trees Your sadness watercolours of ink Your happiness an explosion of paint Your anger scrunched up beside the bin You write essays on stories you don't care for Read something that makes your heart cling to your chest seeking love Something that makes your brain question the very beauty of life Something that gives you goosebumps with feelings you cant explain They are scared of how strong you really are Schools don't educate they dictate Educate yourself You are the greatest teacher Your brain is the self made nuke They are scared you are going to blow A war that is your true self Its better to fight standing than fearing on your knees.
