Live Your Life Not Theirs

Close your eyes
Look within
What do you see
Do you see
The real you

Looking back at you
Smiling without
A care in the world 

Full of  potential
And promise

Or do you see

Just what you

Have been told to
The you created

Through Peer 
Pressure 
And conformity
You see

The problem
With conformity

Is the fucked up
Notion that
We should all
Fit into someones

Belief of normal
But normal

Itself is more
Of an anomaly
Than anything else
Think about it

People adhearing

To a set of standards
Set by crazy people

Does that sound
Sane to you
Because no it
Doesn't to me
In my humble
Opinion
Whatever works for you
Is what you
Should go with

Because the last thing

You or anyone needs

Is to look back
On their life
And regret
Even a single fucking thing
Just because some
Narrow minded asshole

Talked them
Out of it
Know what I mean?
