Freedom

As civilians in today's democracy
we have the right to many freedoms.
But to what extent does the freedom matter
when we're tied down to moral obligations?

Why can't we do what we want?
Why can't we do whatever makes us happy?
Because society doesn't care about
 indiviuals.
It cares about politics, it cares about economics,
it cares about cultural events.

All of us, as individuals, sacrifice our happiness
to make life's trivialities prosper.
