People Please
To speak my opinions, never allowed
Just another person aggreeing with the crowds
Silent, obediant, built to please
Never complain, never disagree
Cleaning up the mess left behind
Using my body, but never my mind
Just carry the load
The perfect servant, do as your told
Trying to be like those that are great
Not realizing that I already sealed my fate
That to be great I need to be unique
But how do I do that if I people please?
No greatness is in store for me
Forced to live passively
Going through life with a plastered smile
Only moving inches, never a mile
My feelings are no more my own
A robot speaking monotone
A bundle of steel, bolts, and wire
When told to sweat, I perspire
If I people please shouldn't I be pleased too?
Because I'm a person just the same as you
A person with feelings, a person with needs
So please, can someone for once take care of me?
