I cannot express myself Not the way letters have sounds And the way words have means Because means have ends. I cannot find a way to define my experience Because definitions have conditions And every definition is defined By one mans minds eye. I cannot find my voice Because the keys are in the Kingdom of my choice And if my choices are made in duty to the words you say How can my words carry voice?

The condition of voice.
I cannot express myself Not the way letters have sounds And the way words have means Because means have ends. I cannot find a way to define my experience Because definitions have conditions And every definition is defined By one mans minds eye. I cannot find my voice Because the keys are in the Kingdom of my choice And if my choices are made in duty to the words you say How can my words carry voice?
