Gears of Conformity's Machine

In another era, when we had no laws
It was a different way of existing
When they were written
Rules were made for order
They weren't there for expression
We may think we're individuals
But you must know, that we aren't
We conform to all of the laws
Especially those that nullify resistance
And if we choose with our heart
We often lose the competition
If our hearts are not always correct
Society still isn't looking out for you
It thwarts our aspirations
It laughs at and mocks you
As your dreams are marred
Conformity is a limitation
It contributes to thinking
That will never reach the stars
All that conformity achieves
Is in our being unfree
It's a mindset so limited
It becomes our slavery
