"To be or not to be-that is the question"-shakespeare

The title of the blog states a quote from a soliloquy in the story Hamlet by Shakespeare. I will not get into the main idea of this soliloquy because I am not contemplating suicide though what I am saying is "To be someone you are not or not to be someone you are", now that is my question.

To be someone you are not or not to be someone you are, that is the question?
Is it because we live a life of constant sin?
Is it because we hide ourselves in the dark
that we must we fight with who we are within
so then what happens to our spark

It dies inside waiting to be free 
longing for that day in which you can be 
not wanting to hide anymore or scurry up a tree
when will it come when you don't have to plea


It begs and begs to be released 
with  only pleasure no remorse and no pain
when will be the day the beast is unleashed 
and thrive over you before it drives you insane

Are you afraid of who you'll become?
or afraid of what others will say
that is exactly why you have gone numb
you have made your bed now lay

To be someone you are not or not to be someone you are, which is the answer?
