Reclaim the land

from once it came

your mind is yours

no ones to take

think as you wish

don't be misguided

worship yourself

as provided.

The thoughts you think

are yours to keep

no one can tell you

your mind is weak

the beliefs that fill

you are never wrong

as long as they harm

no one then nothing

is wrong.

Ignorance is blissful

for those blessed by it

Apathy is resented by

those affected by it

Racists flock to their own crowd

Shepherds raise sheep

to follow the crowd

Intolerance bestowed on

unattractive souls

failure to seek views that are not your own

Speak freely for your cause

know fully well others will applaud

seeking similarities

we wish to see our own reflection

through others indiscretion

show us ourselves in your speech

we will follow you like sheep.
