Hindsight of the Unknown Citizen

Ashes to ashes; Dust to dust— Before you may die, Change the world, you must. By wanting to be The average man, You’re caging your soul As fast as you can. Don’t waste your time On everyday things; You’ll never see What life all brings. If by your death You’ve done nothing rare, People around Will have not a care. You cannot possibly Think it’s your job To reach the world’s door And keep turning the knob. To make your wildest Dreams come true, You must push the door open And walk yourself through. No one will notice You playing by the rules; You’re making your place With identical fools. Instead of dying as The “Citizen Unknown”, Please, for your sake, Take a stand on your own.
