Give Us Our Personality Back

Location

Walking down the halls

Day in, day out

Things change, life moves on

The biggest change comes crashing down

Changing life forever

Control

Domination

All this going on

Nothing we can do

Can't fight the power when the power controls all

Can't fight the power without flaws in the system

Can't fight the power without the power's support

Day in, Day out

Getting by day by day

Moment by moment

Just go away!

Give us our personaity back

Once unique now part of the rest

We try to be independent

We try to do our own thing

The past worked

Now it's just pushed away

Day by day we stand

Together, secertly

Hoping to one day free ourselves

From the hypocritical power

That we just nod and smile to

and we are promised aduthood

but just shoved in a corner

Day by day,

life goes on...
