I Am Limited By Society
I feel limited
Weighed down, stopped by society
They say as an American
I’m free, but free isn’t “Free”
I am constantly limited the First Amendment
I’m granted the freedom of speech
But even my speech is limited
Speak out against a majority
Speak out against socially acceptable things
You’ll see just how limited you really are
They say this is the “Land Of The Free”
But do you really feel free?
Do you agree with everything that’s being done?
Of course you don’t
Want to speak out?
Feel as if you deserve that right?
Ha! Go ahead see what happens
Keep up that attitude
You’ll be put in jail
But all that really is…
Is another way to yet limit you again
You can’t speak your mind in jail
You can’t speak your mind in school
You can’t speak your mind in public
Ha! I’m underreacting
Look at Paula Deen
You can’t even speak your mind in your house
American has limited us so much
We Americans can’t even speak our mind
In the comfort of our home
Absolutely every day the freedom of speech
Is limited
Slowly but surely its grown worse over the years
New laws are being passed
Laws that limit us even more
You can’t hardly say anything nowadays
No matter what you say it seems
You’re politically incorrect
Even when you’re a child
You hear don’t say this
Don’t say that
I’m beginning to wonder what I can say
Society is limiting my freedom of speech
This is so limited it’s like there’s
An alternative motive
A motive to limit me so much
That I become a cookie cutter person
When will someone stand up?
When will society be forced
To stop limiting my freedom of speech.
