Especially When They Don’t Look Inside

i don’t like being told what to do
i don’t like assumptions
i don’t like uneducated guesses
i don’t like judgements
i don’t like a lack of knowledge
tapping me on the shoulder
and telling me who i am
i don’t like being told what to do
i don’t like being told who i am
what and how i think
what i should say and what i should do
how i should behave and think
i don’t like being told what to do
i don’t like those who cannot add
those who add up number
and come out with five
i don’t like being told what to do
especially when they don’t look inside
