Where friendships demand conformity
That's where you'll find me lonely
I won't appease a mass of thought
To feel accepted and holy
I live for a world of unity
With hope and love held closely
But that is not the world today
Not remotely, but if only
If only it was simply
Love and peace reflected
Then all the hatred of today
Would be abandoned and rejected
All the factions without following
The cultists all neglected
The politics and government
Lifeless and disrespected
The cleansing of the brainwashed
The institutions and religions
The pair of rot and genocide
No longer a tradition
All life completely unevolved
Released from out their prisons
From the lies and tricks and treachery
Of poisonous ambitions
No man author of another
No authority to reign
No rule nor regulation
To leave the lovers unengaged
No crusade, no invasion
No eternal war campaign
Just a liberty and freedom
Where only fear is kept enchained
I say it purely in my heart
Say it clearly in my mind
That I will not conform again
Not for any length of time
For I have lived amongst the perils
The destruction and decline
And when this sorrow pierced my heart
I was undone and left resigned
All the passion, all the fervor
All the faith that bolsters sin
The blind trust of propagating
And the deceptive sermons
All the cunning, crafted speeches
The advocacy of religion
The persuasion of the masses
In a moment met its end
It no longer has a place
No footing in my life
I won't conform for friendship
I won't submit to lies
Although I'd love to be your neighbor
I'd let you sever every tie
For all that you submit to
Is made of all that I despise
I'm patient and I'm tolerant
Outside of force and violence
Not a qualm with your lifestyle
If it doesn't demand compliance
I can get along with anyone
Forming friendships and alliance
Yet if you'd become a tyrant
You'd be met with great defiance
