"Walk Away"

Taught to be addicted 
Taught to be a tool 
In a system that uses
Human weakness 
As a fuel

Remember to forget 
Everything you know 
Crippling conditioning 
Kills the will to grow

So afraid to love 
So afraid to fail 
Terrified to leave behind 
This too familiar jail 

Dependent on authority 
To tell us what to do 
Till we light out on our own 
Like the bold and fearless few
