Diverged

As I live and breathe
The thought is crawling underneath my flesh
The existential questions leaving us staring at the ceiling all night
Why must we bend to the arbitrary
There must be far more than just existing
The paths have been compromised
Selling the illusion of choice
Locked in self confinement
Now's the time

Disassociate from the common theme of what life should be
Take this chance to make it out so you can
Free yourself and make the choice that I did
What is a greater means to an end
Than following through with what makes you feel alive
There has to be a release from this droll normality

What would the child you once were say to this?
The one consumed my optimism
So many aspirations shooting past the sky
We were our own greatest hero's
Just dreaming of what we could be
The unbiased perceiver
We walk tall with the scars we've collected
Unhindered by the trials that we have passed
Spitting in the face of deprivation
With hopeful eyes we embrace the future
We are in the wake of greatness
We come in crushing boundaries hand-made for us
Even if you fall short of the path, it's the journey that makes you who you are
