"Be Yourself"

Folder: 
2009

Your culture is something that the system likes to rob

It makes you forget what you are made of and some day you will sob

The system makes you live in places that you hate

It is built to break you and force you to accept your fate

If you work hard, why must your turn wait?

We are the majority but the system denies it

It labels us the minority and robs our identity

It says that we are not qualified and makes us work miserable jobs

And as we scrub filthy plates, the future is covered by fog

The system makes us lose our culture by letting us feel lower than a dog

Do not forget your culture and the sacrifices your parents made

Always follow their sincere principles, before they fade

Accept yourself the way you are, before you are filled with hate and they start to talk

Accept yourself the way you were made and don't assimilate to something you're not
