I have been trapped in my own mind A prisoner to my own slave Fighting monsters that seems to know my weakness Bound by the chains that i invented Tormented by voices that sounds like mine I have become restless like the ant that never sleeps Crickets have invaded my peace of mind Pawns now in control of my royal empire Demons seems to have defeated the angels in charge My diamond crown has been exchanged for pebbles I heard voices as quiet as the river Telling me to learn to see as the eagle sees For it knows that i have gone through seasons in hell That my lips have been kissed by the devil And i am struggling to wipe out his DNA i try to become deaf to roars from darkness In different scenes i imagined my own death Then i push the limits of my energy Trying to find light in the darkness of the underworld How long will i be a like a sleeping giant ? How long will i be out chasing shadows? How long will i be entangled in my dreams? How long will i be slipping through shadows? I am like a king with a thousand chariots I need to become the emperor to my fate I will rise again for its not late I will make my destiny loyal to my choices I am the alpha and omega of my life The beginning and the end of my happiness For the night has fallen My morning has come

I have been trapped in my own mind A prisoner to my own slave Fighting monsters that seems to know my weakness Bound by the chains that i invented Tormented by voices that sounds like mine I have become restless like the ant that never sleeps Crickets have invaded my peace of mind Pawns now in control of my royal empire Demons seems to have defeated the angels in charge My diamond crown has been exchanged for pebbles I heard voices as quiet as the river Telling me to learn to see as the eagle sees For it knows that i have gone through seasons in hell That my lips have been kissed by the devil And i am struggling to wipe out his DNA i try to become deaf to roars from darkness In different scenes i imagined my own death Then i push the limits of my energy Trying to find light in the darkness of the underworld How long will i be a like a sleeping giant ? How long will i be out chasing shadows? How long will i be entangled in my dreams? How long will i be slipping through shadows? I am like a king with a thousand chariots I need to become the emperor to my fate I will rise again for its not late I will make my destiny loyal to my choices I am the alpha and omega of my life The beginning and the end of my happiness For the night has fallen My morning has come
In life most of struggle to actualize our true gift.. we need to start listening to our inner voices cos they have a lot to tell us.
