Can You Afford to Be An Individual?

I couldn't be anything that I didn't wanna be It's stubborn as hell or a problem with authority 'Cause it won't mirror your image of masculinity Oh did I disappoint ya? Sorry to disappoint ya What will you do when the vultures come for you? Will you run and hide? And now we're breeding a feeling of animosity Our thoughts are tribal, go viral and now it's deafening Oh how we're loving the comfort of pack mentality The internet has teeth and It eats and eats and eats ya So are you scared of your introspection? Why could that be? Oh, maybe you object to what you find there And as you stare into your own reflection What do you see? Your black hole for a soul And as your stare into your reflection what do you see? Your black hole for a soul So how's it being a prisoner of your own illusion? Up on a pedestal reveling in your own confusion I see you hide behind your alter or your constitution But you can't live forever In your own echo chamber And you're so scared of the people up in your fairyland But how can you hate something you don't even understand? Oh, you're a walking contradiction in a MAGA hat It's where I wanna be God bless the land of the free So who are you to tell us where we do and don't belong? And who are you to tell us who to love and who to not? Because your mother told ya you would win when you were young Oh it's a boys wonderland, we know it now But now the liberals aren't liberal, they're just as venomous And you can't have an opinion unless you're one of us No second chances, you're branded, your kind are dangerous We're bringing each other down We're tearing each other down So have I gotta kill myself to be original? And if I fucking hate you all am I a criminal? Can you afford to be an individual? Can you afford to be an individual? --- Can You Afford To Be An Individual? - Nothing But Thieves
