Join My Beat (Poetry/Rap)

You say you want change

The world must break and retreat

From the chains of the past

That surround our feet.

Well, I must confess

I have heard all this before

Your ideas ain’t original –

you’re just another bore.

Find a new idea and get with the beat,

Grow a little deeper, just grow a little further,

Reach a little higher, just reach a little farther,

Find a new idea and get with the beat.

My name’s Simon and I say,

“You’re going to New York!”

You don’t have to go that way

If you don’t like what it’s for.

When you see your Facebook friends

Showin’ off their travels –

If they paid for it themselves,

They would start to unravel.

Go and pay your own way

And the world will follow.

Do it your own way,

Lookin’ forward to tomorrow.

Find your own idea and get with the beat,

Grow a new ambition and achieve it with precision,

Change the calculation to change your situation,

Find your own ideas and get with my beat.
