It's Your Life Not Theirs

Your life 
Is yours 
And yours alone

So who are 
You living for

Who are you 
Trying to keep happy

You or those
Who seek to

Control you 
Think carefully

Before you answer

And for once

Be honest

With yourself 
Knee jerk answer

Is of course

You yourself

But are you sure

Do you wear

What you do
Because you like it

And it suits you
Or because you hope
Others will notice
And be impressed
Do listen to

The music 

You listen to
Because you like it

Or you have been
Made to think

You should
Are you truly

Who wish to be

Are just what others

Wish to see

There is a world
Full of people

Waiting to
And trying to
Control you

It's up to you

To let them or not

So ask yourself
What is more
Important
Freedom
Or fitting in
As a sheep
Who can't even
Think for yourself

The choice is yours

Not theirs

Choose wisely
