As Tradition Dies Slowly

I celebrate the possibilities
 A chance to live truly free
 Free from patriarchy and sexist ideology
 Attempted to have been passed on to me
 We used to be content
 We used to think we had everything
 We lived each day in fear of change
 As time moved on
 Others came along
 Thus the creation of a tolerant society
 I continue to move on
 It still takes to long
 As it dies it's not soon enough for me
 Inherited thoughts plagued our own creation
 Religions laws set us apart
 Callous eyes to those in need
 You know they've suffered long enough
 We used to be content
 With those we chose to represent us
 We used to think they were our only choice
 And as time moved on
 Others came along
 Now we create our own voice
