Why can't we just be ourselves
This is what I ask myself everyday
I feel like we just need a little help
To be not just a piece in some hay
Why do we change who we are
To fit into the social norm
Why is life kind of like a farm
producing ideas that are all uniform
We need to break down the barriers
That prevent us from being ourselves
We need to respect our peers
And make more room on the social shelves

Why is life kind of like a farm
producing ideas that are all uniform
We need to break down the barriers
That prevent us from being ourselves
We need to respect our peers
And make more room on the social shelves
