I Had To Walk

Compulsory rules needed in life 
Miseducation that cuts like a knife
Ill-informed humans drowning in vanity
Falling into a pool of utter insanity
Dogmatic claims fighting for dominion 
Flooding with insecurity diluting your opinion
Afraid to confront these unhealthy paradigms
How long before opposition to society is a crime
Youngins and bloods unaware of their struggle 
Blinded by their chains can't see the world's a hustle
Unable to see how much their ancestors fought
Submission and tradition is all you've been taught
Choose well in your battle don't believe all you're fed 
Wake up to truths or lie asleep in your bed
