Lyrics

A community with an open mind- who only accepts a certain kind-
Filled with optimism and unity- intelligence and diversity- where
Bigotry and hatred is shunned- and equality is raised above- but a
Feeling of alienation still persists- a constant struggle which we
Must overcome- is it in my head- a figment of my imagination- or a
Harsh reality that can never be escaped- ingrained in our minds and
Attempted to be ignored- a fight between realism and idealism- a
Fight which we cannot afford- the mind like a sponge brainwashed from
Birth- without given a chance stripped from all self worth- programmed
To be powerless and taught to submit- turn over all control and be
Forced to forfeit- obey the norms of society our gender roles set in
Stone- stuck in a vicious cycle crating yet another clone- abide by
The rules to never speak up- for our utopian world needs no disrupt-
It is suitable for all- each gender class and race- discriminates
Against no one- so keep that grin on your face- a community with an
Open mind- who only accepts a certain kind- until one day challenged
By its people- by finally speaking up- given the chance to resist-
The world of hypocrisy that persists- in this world which exists-
We must detest- empower yourself- learn to speak up- it's time to
Disrupt- this stagnant structure
