Sometimes we want something until we find out what it takes to get it Other times we want something despite what it takes to get it Ego Security Bad companies Bad habits Being left stranded in the openness of what's unknown to us So many times I've wondered what it takes to be free And after mistakes and irredeemable losses I came across honesty Honest loving Honest hating Honest anger, sadness, even apathy Boldness Opening up. You are vulnerable, despite your efforts Freedom demands for you to lose your sense of self Only through transparency do we become weightless and lose our strings And freedom is, most certainly, the joy of feeling no strings attached.

What it takes.
Sometimes we want something until we find out what it takes to get it Other times we want something despite what it takes to get it Ego Security Bad companies Bad habits Being left stranded in the openness of what's unknown to us So many times I've wondered what it takes to be free And after mistakes and irredeemable losses I came across honesty Honest loving Honest hating Honest anger, sadness, even apathy Boldness Opening up. You are vulnerable, despite your efforts Freedom demands for you to lose your sense of self Only through transparency do we become weightless and lose our strings And freedom is, most certainly, the joy of feeling no strings attached.
