Am free, yet am not
I look straight to the mirror
I saw a man who looks exactly like me
I saw a man who has fought for his freedoms
A man who has gone through chains
A man who has gone through hard labours
A man who has served for years to gain his freedom
But when I join the real world
Never knew is a world full with pains
A world full with sorrows and agony
A world full of deceits
I always think about my serving days as a slave
Being chained and feed all day long
But I can't go back anymore
Am free, yet I can't breath without fighting for air
Am free, yet I can't eat food worth eating
Am free, yet I can't go places worth going
Am free, yet I can't say words worth saying Am free, yet I can't date a girl worth dating
Am free yet, I can't do things worth doing
Sometimes I think being chained and feed all day as a slaveΒ Β is better than being a free man In this wicked world
Freedoms only come when you stop breathing
Freedom only exist in the world of fantasies Am free, yet am not
