I tend to forget that the pen is mightier than the sword
When I sit down to write, there's a filter with what is and isn't okay to say
It can't be too dark but it can't be too happy either
No, that's not like you. Erase it all
Maybe try a different approach
The filter encases me into social rules and status
Don't interrupt even if you have something you really wanna share
Make sure you smile at everyone because it'll make their day
Only talk when spoken to
Agree with everything they say because they are right
The filter transfers to a physicality stance
You're too fat
Maybe a shake diet for a year could help, but probably not
Don't eat for the next few days
Oh look, your face broke out again. Put on a ton of makeup and maybe it'll look better
My filter has enveloped me into a completely white padded cell with no doors and no windows
I myself am wearing a white jumpsuit with a straight jacket as an accessory
I am a prisoner to my filter
