Controlled
Contained, controlled, is what we are
Our jobs, our lives; do you feel it too?
First school and knowledge, get into college
A job with pay, to live the way
They want you to, is what we do.
Each day planned out, wake up, get out
Of bed to do what you don't want to.
Boundaries set, dreams, regret
For what you want, but can't because
It's not the way in life today.
Step out, break free, breathe deep and be
The you who you are
Not defined by your car, or job, or house
Or habits, words, failures, accomplishments.
Not who you are molded into
But who you are, that molds the world.
