Yield
I should do as I'm told
And not question the order
But I tire of this plan
It's forced me to the border.
Silently obey
Never question the master
But is that really fair?
My brain works much faster.
But no, forever do as willed
And be content to be alive
But is it really living
If your heart doesn't survive?
So I cast away this evil system
And raise forth my blade and shield
I have had enough obedience
No longer shall I yield.
