I am going to wake up every single morning with both eyes open
At least while I am here and I still have them
I am going to lift my chin up with every more forceful step I take
By guiding my eyes upwards I will make less mistakes
Because the air is so clean, and vision is so vivid
It does me no good with the ground consumed in it
What good is it for me to live my life on the floor?
The only reason I would stay there is for you to take more
and more
and more
from me as I molded myself
To something better for you
A higher pedestal
And I'm sorry but I'm not here for you
To walk all over
To be apart of your cruel
Selfish ways that demand other souls
Get caught in your fishing net
Of something I sometimes can not even control
I truly believe it was not all my fault
That the floor was so easily shapely
It caught my eyes in the fog
As if my mind was then tranced straight into the ground
I became hypnotized and synchronized into your sound
But to hell with you, and your fisherman's gear
******* for selfishness in keeping me there
The fact that you thought you could use me as your bottom
To cheat your way up, and hold me from my blossom
I will be better, I will be so much more
I can not afford to be your butler
I can not afford to be here as your slave
I did what I can, I gave what gave
And I will continue to give all that I have left
I will continue to push for my everlasting breath
I will be, and I am, I am here, I am now
I'm not afraid anymore, I'm not stuck in this town
But this town has got rules
I won't play the fool
Step by step I'm getting exactly where I need to
Go, and get out of here
And that made me realize
The only thing holding me back
All along has been fear
