Beat It Into Me

They beat it, they beat it
They beat it into us
We get it, we get it
We’ll never fit it
We’ve figured out your equation
To gain validation
Where lies accountability
In our vanishing communities?
Unspoken, turn our backs
And we compete
Beat it into me
Beat it into me
It’s useless, it’s useless
We see no benefits
Consume us, consume us
The goals in plain sight
And we will not be something
Else for you to commodify
They can not determine our values
Standards unrealistic and shallow
Shame us for the unattainable
But we are already whole
