Analysis of Time to Wake Up Again
Now that we’re older,
we’re asked to
kill what made us different,
give up our dreams,
and fit our minds into
the smallest of boxes.
Standing in the shadows
of my own ideas and thoughts,
I rebelliously decline
this rite of passage.
Hand me a stranger’s hand,
give me something new,
let me speak out
amongst a crowd of you,
tell me no secrets,
and I’ll tell you no lies,
for this new mindset of mine
forever refuses to die.
