Society decides who we are

And who we are able to be.

Society decides who belongs

and who will be seen as “normal”.

Society decides the actions we take

And the paths we make for our futures.

Society decides the right

And wrong way to live.

 

I believe people change themselves

to fit in with this idea of normal.

We organize our people

Into groups of “us vs them”.

We identify those on their side,

Determining a clear team and common enemy.

Isolation is a form of protection

That will cause a civil war within.

 

Society cannot decide who we are

And who we are able to be.

Society cannot decide who belongs

and who will be seen as “normal."

Society cannot decide the actions we take

And the paths we make for our futures.

There is no right

or wrong way to live.
