I am a melody that longs to be sang
I am a dream that longs to be discovered
I am a story that longs to be told
I am a star that longs to shine
Please don't fence me in
I am a picture that longs to be painted
I am a recipe that longs to be cooked
I am new, i am unique
I have never been
And i long to be
I am someone special
Please don't fence me in
Each time you call me lazy
Each time you call me stupid
Each time you call me useless
You lay the the next brick
That houses in the real me
Please don't fence me in
I am the voice of an orphan
I am the voice of the fatherless
I am the voice of a grown woman
I am the voice of a mature man
I am the voice of the rich and poor
I am the voice of everyone who feels
Misunderstood, undermined
Or mistreated
Please don't fence me in

Each time you call me stupid
Each time you call me useless
You lay the the next brick
That houses in the real me
Please don't fence me in

I am the voice of a mature man
I am the voice of the rich and poor
I am the voice of everyone who feels
Misunderstood, undermined
Or mistreated
Please don't fence me in
