We call it a society And to be real I find it dystopic We're supposed to live in harmony And yet there's so many conflicts Feminists are considered like convicts For something that's supposed to be the basics I refuse to be part of a society that inflicts Such inequalities and horrors to women So many women are dying Men's behavior portrayed in such hideous colours Are they supposed to bottle up feelings Never being able to vent even if they went To a therapist but then again They're perceived as the worst Yet they might suffer even more than everyone else Crying and expressing emotions is strength not weakness So many men are falling I want my enby peeps to know that they need to stay true to themselves People looking at us like we're anomalies In a cis-tem that promotes to be copies Of one another only to hide ourselves So many enbys are fading When I take a good look I despise it even more People get discriminated for every possible reason There's a serious issue at stake if some of us can't make it past a season We're bound to die so why some of us depart before said date? Every one of us is so beautiful We come in different size and shape And we all suffer from different aches Let me remind you we're all meaningful Even when life gets tough we do our best to get through Through therapy lies improvement in the end Through therapy's lies improve the mad to no end I will be getting out of the depths of the ocean and watch the horizon truthfully Yeah the sky's my limit It is this society that made me lose my sanity Let's go back to therapy and not get cancelled shall we? I am what shattered these chains I am which wears these strains I won't be chained by my remains I am what stays aflame in the rain I am which is arcane and deranged And I'll make sure I plant the right grains Some might consider these words to be shallow Some might consider these words to be hollowed These words are for those that search for the Hallowed Path to a hidden reality devoid of meaning, sense and warfare If money is the only thing higher classes care Then it's no wonder that Earth is left caved What's the point of possessing gold If your heart is rotten to the core Nothing is close to real since the beginning of this century Synthetic emotions in the form of pills Mind altering chemicals in the form of speeches Hate speeches in the form of political discussions Mental health in the form of illusions A mess of a society controlled by the Patriarchy And you dare to say I'm the one that is crazy, that I'm not living in reality? And I'm aware, this world may be flawed, it may be broken but it's all we have So we better take care of what's left of it Getting blinded by greed is no excuse There might be no written rules And yet we put on masks Hiding behind fake acts That suppress emotions Yet in this life we're always in motion Always in the grasp of the ocean I'm getting sick of these pretty locutions That we need to say to look like people with educations As long as you're a decent human being why can't we stop having theatrical sessions The most real versions of our aversions The things we so call hide for a prettier face Why shouldn't we be allowed to not have a facade Why should every one of us be oppressed by this masquerade Why should fragile souls be fooled and go off bridges in the shades Because of what you've created I'll stay still and dissuade Everyone of you to not end it all by the lampshade Till my lungs give out I'll be here to your aid So please, don't let Society smother your beautiful self and soul
