There was a time when I bought my shoes at the grocery store.
There was a time when I cut of my thrift store pants in the summer to have shorts.
There was a time when I was free from social judgement.
There was a time when I was watched and envied by the suppressed.
Then the corporations stole it from me.
They stole that identity.
My Converse are now $40 to $50 and
My camo shorts come with desingers labels.
The same thing happened to the kids with the flannels
The same thing happened to the yippies and their sandals
The one lesson that hasn't been learned
is that buying this shit doesn't free you
You can't buy my lifestyle my thoughts and ideals
So you can't sell them
You can't sell the person who isn't suppressed by society
and if your not that person already
you probably never will be
these fake ass bands are like false prophets
unity?
only amongst the black sheeps kid
not with the ones who are only rolling in the mud

Agree? Disagree? let me know
