The Idealistic Man Vs the Rational Man Vs the Robot

I am an idealistic man filled with ideas to change the world Deep inside me there is rage A rage that wants to erupt And change the world But this world has changed me now A change that i fear the most Now i am the rational man Trying to fit in this world Work, socialize, eat, sleep, earn Thats all i got now Without ideas a man is almost dead but for a rational man that is the idea to live without an idea killing your dreams But life has changed even more Robot i am now I just follow orders Ideas are a thing of the past Work hard,Work hard, work hard is what i do now But deep inside me there is still the idealistic man He calls me everyday I ignore him His voice has weakened now But he is still there And now i am a dead man One with the earth Dust to dust, ashes to ashes So which one are you now?
