How To Lose Your Pride

Did you get the idea from what the title suggests?
It is not our soul but our mind that has been put up to test
Because every time we speak, there is prejudice
Every time we deny, we are doomed whether it is
What we hear or what we see
It is the demon that keeps us isolated from society
Because there are eyes on what we do
There are people like us who can’t get through
Because we have a reputation to maintain
Honestly, the reputation is just a mask to hide the pain
“oh my god, what are they doing, don’t they have any manners”
Is what they say every time they see us.
But trust me we are living a better life and a happy one and they are just happy that they’ll never be us.
We are happy but not for the world
Because according to them there is nothing more to a boy and a girl
I do not blame them, what can you expect
For they had a generation where all females were rejects.
No matter how much you try to change.
No matter how happy you are
There will always be people who will bring you down to expose all of your scars
We have been taught to fight the world, live for our right with our head held high in the sky
But what can we do if the teachers are wrong but our morals are strong, do we fight or do we die?
I guess we’ll have to learn that ourselves because we have been treated like shit
Because we can be taught but not be tamed, not by the sanity of hypocrites
This generation is destined to grow as proud as lions
They have the hunger of knowledge
But pride is the only thing we swallow here
Just to get some solace.
Look up to the sky, I guess we lost our pride for the best
Only to rise from the ashes just like a phoenix.
