The Freedom To Enjoy
Constantly criticized
The world is misinformed...
Let me tell you all about
what must be known.
A young boy, I was fearful
Confused by what I was,
by communication
Yet gifted with a talent
To observe
To see
To interpret...
Though I never thought much of it,
I kept it in mind.
A dull life, still confused.
I simply refused
to touch the taboos I'd been taught
A seemingly meaningless life,
though I felt something big coming on...
Then-
Finally.
I breathed it in
It took me high
Oh so high
Oh so very high
With time I learned
What I could do...
Oh the possibilities!
Thinking to myself, "what a dull life...so far."
Truth?
Truth....
Truth be told,
what i discovered was
the substance of exaggeration;
the highlighter of life.
With this in mind,
find moderation.
Teach not that one will fall victim
Teach not that consistency is wise
Moderation.
Everyone should have the right to satisfy
the occasional hunger for an exaggerated satisfaction.
Harm...what harm?
An anti-weapon, impossible to kill with.
With an emphasis on relaxation, satisfaction, and enlightenment.
I find it sad that the
higher authorities misinform us.
Misinformation has gotten us nowhere.
So thank you congress,
Thank you FCC,
for keeping out of the general public
an experience we as humans have a right to.
Much like I was,
you are afraid.
Be not fearful of a more
peaceful and satisfying world,
rather, be ready for it.
We have had enough, and are rising.
Be not afraid, however.
We are merely saving you from yourselves.
