gimmee anger instead of acceptance

gimmee change instead of complacence

gimmee the unique instead of the majority

gimmee the thoughtful instead of the sheep

gimmee strange instead of normality

gimmee determination instead of envy

gimmee tolerance instead of hate

gimmee excitement instead of the mundane

gimmee sanity instead of war

gimmee medical treatment & therapy instead of imprisonment

gimmee health instead of sickness
