If

If I have to free my mind to be able to think,

Do I have to catch my mind to stop thinking?


If I have to trust the government,

Do I have to distrust the people?


If I have to follow the crowd to be cool,

Do I have to follow my muse to be warm?


If I have to mind my own business,

Do I have to not care about others?


If everybody begins to hate me,

Do I begin to care about them more?


If I have to have a plan in life,

Do I have to have no plan in death?


If I have to be gay to write poems,

Do I have to be straight to write pop songs?
