You Say You Want A Revolution
But wheres the plan ya know? At the height of my youthful, idealistic, rebellious stage I fought the system just as you did. I put my heart into it so much so that at the age of sixteen I had my first encounter with the police. I was silenced, documentation was falsified, and I was given a label. I entered a sort of grey area, neither criminal, nor law abiding citizen. I learned the hard way that sometimes one mistake can change everything. I was exiled from high school and was told, "That if I ever showed up on campus again I would be arrested." I was put in a proverbial box and that box has still not been broken out of. I fought the law and the law won. Now maybe my idealism has been peeled away, my youth dried out, and my rebelliousness has turned to subscribed conformity. But I do applaud those who are new to the fight. Those who have yet to be broken down and told exactly what to do. You've got a helluva long road ahead and you may never see...
