Blackbird

by Bunhead17

I'm a prisoner in my own city with invisble handcuffs and a target on me no matter what choices I make you'll still never let me be free I just wanna fly but everytime I try you shoot me down because the sky was meant for the birds but don't you see, i'm a bird too so why won't you just let me be
