Labels

Thinking of things beyond controlled human perceptions,
They automatically label me "crazy".

The minute people try to break free from everything;
authority, the idiot BOX contraptions,
and the incomplete misguided education,
we're no longer seen as a part of society.
A "deviant" is what they labeled me.

Forever striving for betterment and peace,
leads me to believe,
with proper time and dedication,
my dream will become mere reality.
They tell me I'm "living in a land of make believes."

Conceptualizing ideas that can't be understood in measurable 2D or 3D,
my ideology knows no boundaries.
They'd say "Idk, he seems lost and confused ?"
Well...Maybe.

Subtly refusing to simply sit back and accept what I'm told,
or be forced into believing all that I see,
questioning all of what was written,
blatantly disregarding authority.
Choosing to exercise my human capabilities,
using my brain for its intended purpose...
Thinking, has led me to create my own sense of realities.
Oh don't worry,
I'm prepared to be labeled as "delusional" within this structured society.

Nas once spoke the words "If I ruled the world,"
We're all kings and queens, rulers of our own worlds.
Although interconnected,
we're separate entities with our own frame of minds.
Suffering from "schizophrenia" is what they'll label me with this time.

Interpersonal communication allowed us to see into one another's worlds,
an art form being hurled to the side,
making way for social networking and media genocide.
"Blasphemy, you will not bash our technology with such deceitful lies !!!"

Once upon a time, your labels held me hostage.
Unwilling and unable to be released,
from your modern day slave mentality,
instilled in me as a young child.

Taught that SUCCESS LIES in being a doctor, lawyer, teacher, fireman etc
What if I envisioned something else,
who are you to place a value on all of societal needs,
through your SUCCESSFUL LIES?

Taught all of the schisms and cruelties of the world through your miseducation,
but maybe its time for some deep self reflection.
Ask yourself this question,
" What have I done any different ?"
America, the land of the free,
but to me all land is free,
and its my mind and mentality,
that I'll emancipate eventually,
from your labels of limited beliefs.

In the words of Lauren Hill, "Be free, be who YOU are suppose to be."
Why not live with joy, bliss, happiness,
instead of constant pain and misery ?
