Im one confused fellow in the crazy world. Frustrated with society and life in general. Society is the dumbest thing i can think of, it pressures people into terrible situations just to crown them with "acceptance." People change their entire priorities and morals just to find their place among others that society calls popular. Its is hard to find a person's own niche, people become trapped by different circumstances that are beyond control and become their slave. I admire those that do find their niche, and do not betray themselves. They are truly genuine, but society pretends to give these people acceptance. Its makes it seems that this is a good thing. But when someone tries to be themself and by doing this they cross the line of what is considered popular they are immediately alienated. Being genuine is extremely underrated, being at peace with yourself is what all strive for, but as soon as you give in and substitute society's values for your own you become fake. All people are fake to different degrees. Some people in music stive for this genuineness. When they play for the fans they are false, what makes a group unique is when they play for themselves. And if the public happens to enjoy the music then good for them. Societal pressures are killing the idea of the individual.
