Acceptance Validates Authority
Acceptance validates authority.
Hence, I won’t let you rule.
I will show you the ground
While you intend to touch the sky.
I won’t let you manipulate me
Because I know your desire
Lies in chaining my soul.
I won’t let you bind me
With your traditions, conventions,
Thoughts and customs
Because I know the power is within me.
The power in me to resist your power
Will make you powerless.
Impotent will you be called ever, forever.
Because I know acceptance validates authority.
The key to freedom is in my hand finally.
I know how to break free from your pretentious power.
I know how to render you impotent, impotent, impotent.
But, weren’t you impotent always.
You just pretended to be powerful
By showing off something you never had.
The strength you claim to be yours
Came out of a loud scream.
When you were scared,
You did not know
How to control the situation.
You could only hit, yell or abuse.
You could never be productive.
And now you are not even destructive,
Because I have the key to break free
From your pretentious power.
So, you seize to be destructive as well.
You are just a neuter.
Impotent you are, ever, forever.
Hence, I won’t let you rule.
I will show you the ground
While you intend to touch the sky.
I won’t let you manipulate me
Because I know your desire
Lies in chaining my soul.
I won’t let you bind me
With your traditions, conventions,
Thoughts and customs
Because I know the power is within me.
The power in me to resist your power
Will make you powerless.
Impotent will you be called ever, forever.
Because I know acceptance validates authority.
The key to freedom is in my hand finally.
I know how to break free from your pretentious power.
I know how to render you impotent, impotent, impotent.
But, weren’t you impotent always.
