The Rebel and the Conformist

Liberty and freedom we shall have.
A strict line, order there shall be!
In harmony we’ll live, we’ll learn to love.
Black or white, others you won’t see!

These two figures are in permanent war,
And I just can’t believe you can’t see,
That I don’t want to brag, not anymore,
But these two enemies dwell inside me.
