Image for the poem i

i'm Not Going To Leave You Alone

i will say what i want and i always do
no law or social norm will suppress me
if you take offense it's all down to you
and your outrage doesn't impress me
 
It is rarely my intention to hurt people
and i try to avoid that whenever i can
but when you join a flock of sheeple
this gurl will speak her mind like a man
 
There's a study called social psychology
controlling the group is easier than one
they steer folks and make no apology
if we stay silent about it they've won


The title refers to the speech Peter Finch made in the film Network
