On behalf of each of them, who are struggling through the waves of discrimination, patriarchy and inequality to live our lives our own ways and define new norms in the society.
I'm tired, I'm frustrated,
I'm crying, I'm afraid,
Holding so many things inside,
Caught up between what's wrong and what's right,
Or actually, what the world thinks to be wrong or right,
I question this world around,
Why can't I follow my dreams
And do anything unconventional now,
Why can't we follow an unknown career path,
Why can't we love and marry someone out of the caste,
Or why can't the LGBTQ community be a normal part of society,
Why can't the wedding rituals change for equality,
Why can't the marriage be an equal relationship, to change the old rules of society,
Why are the rules not flexible, that help the needs of new times to resolve,
Why are the change makers, the rule breakers boycotted by all,
Why can't they be accepted as they are, and can follow their own thoughts,
But I give up, I don't even care,
It’s time to stand strong and dare,
Hello society, If you are so rigid,
I am a thinker, an advocate of change,
Will surely do what this time needs,
I'm on the verge,
Thoughts are about to become words,
Might be fierce, might be harsh,
But that's what they are,
I'll scream till the end,
That I'm not wrong, I'll build my own world around,
If not accepted by this world's harsh bounds,
But I'll do what my heart says, and my mind suggests,
New times should change the existing rules,
The society and this world should accept,
Else the generation will collapse.
