Labels

Artists : Unseen, The : Labels

Call me punk cause
I wear a leather jacket.
Call me a hippie cause
I believe in love and peace.
Call me an idealist cause
of songs like this one .
You can call me what you like,
I am all and none of these .

Fix a label on me
to keep illusions happy.
Fix a label on me,
does it make you feel. secure?
Fix a label on me
to keep me at a distance .
And I'll label you as ignorant
not wanting to know more.

Before we understand ourselves
do we have to fight each other?
Before we share opinions
must we keep them undercover?
We classify and categorize
to keep ourselves divided .
We are all individuals,
not the images provided.

Labels are a subtle way
of keeping us in line .
Divided by conformity,
we waste away our time .
We are all individuals
divided by their rituals.
Think again like I have done -
throw away the labels!
