Stay in your lane

Do as your told 
Stay in your lane 
If you ask questions 
Clinically insane 
Robotically programmed to follow the order 
Think outside the box 
Youve got a mental disorder
Lookin all the way back to when I was a kid 
What I was told to do was whatever I did 
And the same thing is implemented as we grow old 
We have learnt from birth to do as we’re told 
Because someone’s always bigger and better than you 
More authoritative because they’re wearing a suit 
It’s a game to be played 
You can lead or you can follow 
And today will just be the same as tomorrow 
And tomorrow will be the same as six months down the line 
If we don’t speak up now it’s a race against time 

The man made world we live in is pretty absurd 
You got the wolves who lead the pack and then the sheep who herd 
If God is real and he created the earth 
He created the soil and the sun that burns 
Gave us air to breathe and and leaves on trees 
Mother Nature is a blessing, but our priorities’ greed
 We need to nurture that land that we are living on now 
It’s not too late and there is a way how
But we’re all too wrapped up in the sorrow and wallow 
Instead of standing up to this we just beg steal and borrow 
They’re all sitting on thrones, they are the winners 
Meanwhile we’re begging Facebook for free school dinners 
You’re selfish and seedy 
So fuck all the needy? 
There’d be no need to be needy 
If you wasn’t so greedy
