Labels — Spoken Word

Описание: words—

I don’t know who I am
A journey of self discovery
Seems like way too work for me
So instead I’ll just label myself like a can

I do not know my identity
So I’ll just form it artificially
Let others define what I am to me
It’s all so easy! Tell me!

Am I a libra. A scorpio. A Gemini.
Was I born in the year of the dragon dog or fly?
Am I a type A or a type B
ESFJ or INTP?
A kinaesthetic learner or more auditory
Left wing or right wing? Grit or Tory?

Don't step to me bro don't even laugh
I'm vicisou my patronising is a giraffe

Don’t label me bro! that’s what I’ll say but I when get the chance
I’ll label away
“I’m sorry I’ve gotta stay go home today I just found out I'm an introvert”
“Okay”
“Seriously I just can't get outta bed
I took a personality test that said
The founding father I’m most like George Washington
And he’s dead!”

Are you left or right brain?
Oh my god me too. That's insane!
What are the chances that your half of the brain
Would be the same as my half of the brain

And what websites do you browse?
Are you a tumblrite or Redditor
Answer carefully case one of those is irregular
If we follow the same trends then we can be friends
But if not well this is where the conversation ends

I'm an introvert cause Ive avoided human contact in three weeks
It sounds like you're just being an anti social freak
Ddddont introvert shame me



Wait
Could it be that I’m lacking identity
I don’t want to think for myself so I pretend to be
A bunch of qualities that don’t pertain to me
In a desperate attempt to be somebody?

But I’m not so instead of thinking for myself
I outsource my thoughts to someone else
Labelling myself like a can on the shelf?

Everyone wants to be someone defined
Yet personal identity’s something we find
It’s something we create within our own minds
Not something we get by browsing online

Cause when you label your friends you label your enemies
You make yourself unable to find your true identity
You label your ups and your label your downs
You label your smiles and label your frowns
You label your peaks and label your troughs
But the only real label you have is 50% off
