Identification

What is it? What are you? They all must know.
Before you are allowed to stay or go
Names must be given, specific names, to everything high and low.
Without a name it cannot show.
When everything must be identified
Everything is so closely analyzed.
The unusual are judged the most.
Even the ignorant of the system are forced to toast
To labels and anti-obscurity.
It'll end in madness, probably.
What happened to equality?
Identify or be cast out.
Is this what we've come to be about?
All are judged for what people think they seem to be.
So many are too blind to see.
Even the lonely are not left alone.
Judges with dying minds and hearts of stone
Tell us what cannot be.
So many people too blind to see.
You may buy in, but certainly not me.
I will not be identified
By any of these people's lies.
I am not a stereotype.
I will not wear a coded stripe.
Group one, group two, then me, then you.
We won't give in no matter what they do.
To be an individual is even a label now.
Where is our place to be safe and sound?
Nothing like anyone and anything but anything.
A new song, a new song is the only one we will sing.
Unique in God's eyes, unique as a creation.
The only one I need to identify with is Him in direct relation.
