Lyrics:
I've ripped out my insides now I'm smoking away the day, criticized for my new-fashioned ways. All these beautiful people and I have nothing left to say to you who are giving in to fake grins and everything they might say.

Where is your backbone? Where is your face? Just who is telling you where to find your place? I won't be part of that pecking order and I won't run that race. Walk a mile in my shoes and you'll find things much harder to take.

I was born to break the mould. For this poet must face much resistance, resistance from you to break the rules. This is the way I am, I'll always question and question again.

Where's your emotion? Where is your brain? Just who is causing me all this inner pain? Because capitalism won't spare the people whose survival they don't care. Resistance by emotion is something we could all share.

Will you take these feelings on board and refuse from this day to be to let them get at you or be ignored? It feels so good to fill your soul up with rage but you got to aim at the right place and in the right way. Life is sometimes imbalanced, so make a stand, taking everything that matters into your own hands and try to make things better for yourself and those you love.

So come with me, take a walk, this resistance is more than talk.
