Don'T Be a Robot

Many succumb to the acceptable ways
Those conforming, those afraid
Those without any self praise

For if to succumb and give in all the time
There’d be no one to challenge
There’d be no cause for rhyme

To light up the world, differences must be
We must expand on uniqueness
And create quality

We must focus on talents and play to the max
We must strive, persevere
Never just relax

For when we conform all the time, makes us weak
We must strengthen our beings
Encourage the meek

We must offer a light to the darkened around
And encourage equality
While difference surrounds
