I lived in hell for many years
Living in a constant state of panic and fear
Increasing everytime the devil drew near
He drew more power with every tear
Questioning my thoughts, made my own memories disappear
I didn’t even recognize myself in the mirror
Until I found my strength, my spear
Now his screams I can’t even hear
He has no power, and I have no fear
I am majestic and he is mere
caged
Your Rage Kept Me In A Cage
You kept me in a cage; chained and locked.
There was no way out that was not blocked
Kidnapped. Wings strapped. Completely Trapped
Days go by. I still don’t fly
Hope decreased. Would I ever be released?
I won’t let him keep me here. I won’t be controlled by fear
It’s time things are changing. It’s time for uncaging
I fought and felt stripped from the chains that I ripped.
My wings for so long held down and gripped
But they could not possibly ever be clipped
I was once in your prison. But from those dwellings i have finally risen.
I want to sing I want to fly
A bird is free to fly and roam
A bird can make anywhere their home
I hope to be a bird one day
But for now locked and caged I stay
The birds they sing with joy and freedom
I have no voice, I cant even greet them
I sit alone trapped with out hope
If a bird cannot sing then how can it cope
The days go by and still I am silent
I spend all of my days just keeping quiet
I want to sing I want to fly
I want to be way up high in the sky
Siniging my song to all that can hear
This is my dream, despite what I fear
One day ill make it One day ill sing
One day ill feel the wind under each wing
