I am not going to be dictated to by fans, certainly. I am dictated enough to by my record company to last me a million years.

The unexercised power
The power of consent to health is inside me
I knowingly smoke and drink.
The power of consent to slavery is inside me.
I willingly slave and obey.

I refuse to be a clone.
From birth to death it seems to me.
That we are never truly free.
To be what we would like to be.
We are expected to conform
to what’s accepted as the norm.
Dictated by society.
WE go to school where we are taught.
To memorise the things we ought.
But no one spares a single thought.
About what we would like to be.
They do not care apparently.
We can’t escape too firmly caught.
Though some of us a very few.
Rebel and we refuse to do
What the system wants us to.
But most accept the status quo.
Because they aren’t allowed to know.
That they are entitled to pursue.
Their cherished dreams in their own way
and no one has the right to say.
That they cannot but they will pay.
The price for their rebellion
against the states opinion.
But some. still do it anyway.
I’m happy to defy the state
and take control of my own fate.
Because I don’t appreciate
being told I must obey
When I can see a better way
than that dictated by the state.

Too weak an ego
I must die before being dictated;
I must die before being pitied.
My death must precede my slavery.
My ego is too weak to bear these fruits.

All I want is for people to listen to it with unbiased ears, and decide for themselves. I just don't want them to be dictated to by the media, or have preconceptions about it. If you like it, great. If you don't, fair enough.

In playing Beethoven... there is little that can be reduced to ingratiating sounds... Everything is dictated by the significance... and direction of the notes & passages themselves.
