Kids Listen

You need to be unique 
don't be a clone
you must think and speak 
with the mind you own

Fitting in's dull
It's already been done 
create your own mold 
bang your own drum 

write down for release 
your song your poem
forget abilities 
for fun keep flowing 

Sing your sound terribly 
It's a laugh and a therapy 
don't aim to be big 
just aim to be free 

interesting people 
never follow the crowd 
it is how the sheep walk 
and sheep eat the ground

be who you are 
no image that's farce 
have a genuine heart 
be true, not a f-****
