You must do that, says society

And it doesn't count if it's not your priority

So, do it, they say

Even if it's not what you want to do today

You must conform to this belief

Even if you can't, it, conceive

You must do it today

Even if you're having a rainy day

You have to be considered the norm

Or else you'll have to reform

You can't be someone who isn't under this category

You can only be something we want you to be

It's like we're clay to you, and you're forming us into YOUR thing

Don't you understand that I am unique and not something that needs forming?

I am unique; I am not a "we"

I am me, myself, and I, and I want you to let me be me
