He says, "Change your nature, it will harm you in life"
I say, "I can't help it, its a genetic problem"
He says, "Its no use being so stubborn about things and trying to prove your point always"
I say, "But I am not wrong, rather everyone else is!!! I am following the right path"

He says, "But tht is not how the society works,
You need to understand that. Be silent, be quiet and don't be such a fire"
I say, "Which means you stay silent and let things happen the way they do,
Let the bad guys out rule you"

To which He says, "You are not here to change the world,
You are here to live and live well...
Protect yourself all the way from what is wrong
Don't get involved in it and don't let it affect you in any manner
Be good and Do good
And if anyone tries to disrupt your peace of mind
Don't leave them, destroy their happiness"

But then, again, I tell him the same thing, "This isn't how it should be,
This isn't right because you are not standing up for what the right thing is.."
He says, "But this is how it works,
LEARN THE RULES OR QUIT THE GAME
Learn them fast as life does not give you chances again and again"

I am clueless to what I tell him now
I don't have an answer to what he says
Maybe I must learn the rules of this game now
Maybe, this is how it actually works...
