Alla This - Ani DiFranco

I will not stand immersed

In this ultra violent curse

I won’t let you make a tool of me

I will keep my mind and body free

Bye, bye, minutiae

Of the day to day drama

I’m expanding exponentially

I am consciousness without identity

I am many things made of everything

But I will not be your bank roll

I won’t idle in your drive through

I won’t watch your electric sideshow

I got way better places to go

I will maintain the truth

I knew naturally as a child

I won’t forfeit my creativity

To a world that’s all laid out for me

I will look at everything around me

And I will vow to bear in mind

That all of this was just someone’s idea

It could just as well be mine

I won’t rent you my time

I won’t sell you my brain

I won’t pray to a male God

'Cause you know that would be insane

And you know that I can’t support the troops

'Cause every last one of them is being duped here

And I will not rest a wink

Until the women have regrouped

I am many things made of everything

But I will not be your bank roll

I won’t idle in your drive through

I won’t watch your electric sideshow

I got way better places to go
