Abject double self
Eternal internal conflict
Cultural subjectivity ingrained by force
Hiding in the shadows of me
School felt like a prison but it wasn't
It had me build the prison inside myself
Scraps of knowledge
Out of context
Out of truth
Drip fed the lie of objectivity
False tolerance of superficial change
And contempt for real difference
Separate everything!
Don't think for yourself
It's just the way things are
Don't question our rules
It's just the way things are
Childhood lost in the desert of the known
Drain the life from my eyes
I was taught truth's set in stone
To accept a world-view that's brittle and hollow
Taught to see in false light
That anything else is a dangerous crime
Equal Opportunity:
Your circumstance, your responsibility
And freedom means fend for yourself
Yet duty means fend for your master or else
I was taught not to care
That legal injustice is rational; fair
That there's nowhere else to go
And nobody simply deserves a tomorrow
