#shackle
To write,
was to embrace all the waves
that you kept off the shore.
To write,
was to embrace the thoughts
you shoveled down
so they wouldn't have the power to hurt you.
To write,
was to feel liberated
of your shackles and confinement.
To write,
was to find yourself
navigating towards
your own thoughts
and emotions that you
kept away for so long.
To write,
was to feel once more
and be brought back to yourself.

I will never see a day of happiness like everyone has got
The chance to grasp with joy and family in their life not
Having to search for what they're missing in themselves mixed
With mental issues they can not contain,
And even though lie to myself about everything,
its time let myself free,
time to take the shackles off my feet let God see.
How everything is destroying around me.
How every person's love swindled me.
My life will be purposeful,
Unstoppable,
Unbreakable,
Living the happiest I've ever been,
Now its hard for ever sin,
Now its hard for me to pretend,
I'm glad I could try again.

It’s so dumb and not really the point.
I wish, I wish, I wish,
I could force you to choke on it.
With every verbal message you spew,
The more the realization that the sparkle and shine,
Was just a shackle of the basest iron.
One that you released me from yourself.
I wish, I wish, I wish,
I could force you to choke on it.
It’s so dumb and not really the point.

I hide my pain so none can see
The monster dwelling inside of me
I call him rage, I call him pain
He's there to keep me sane
He keeps the evil people away
His blood lust you will not sway
He never has anything nice to say
He's been there since way back in the day
He was born one dark night
When I could no longer fight
And he's been with me ever since
He really, truly is my dark prince
So don't hurt me or try to make new scars
Or I'll turn him lose, and he'll make you see stars
I keep him chained with shackles
For with him resides great hackles
He loves to break bones and make them crackle
So if you come into my life
And your there just to cause strife
Lie, break my heart, or my body use
I'll turn him lose and you'll see true abuse
And when he's done, over your body I'll stand
He always does what I command
So don't try to hurt me or you'll find out firsthand

Please don't **** me
I'm begging for mercy
But I refuse to say sorry
My apology will just be pure denial
Can't you see it's been awhile
Long time coming
I'm still running
Please oh no
No no no god ****** no
I put your name in vain please don't condemn my soul
But they want to take me away
To a place we all will end up
But not like this
No no no
I still won't say I'm sorry
I'm worried
I still haven't been let free
Singe my flesh
disfigured me
Oh me me me
How ugly me
I'm a monster just unshackle me
So many faces
Pretty faces but I'm just suffering
Why me me
Where's my apology
I'm still not sorry
Until you do right by me
No no no ****** no
Skin is burned
Heart is cold
Soul is gray
Why the burden
Keep it burning
But don't **** me
I am begging
But I won't apologize
I won't say sorry
Spare me please
Yes I'm a monster
But you have no right to shackle me
I can't breathe
Let air in
Let me see
It's dark and I'm scared
And I don't care
Cuz I am a monster
And I won't say sorry
No no no
Where's my apology
Let my bloodline weep and weep for me
But I'm not sorry
And I don't care
Fear has stricken me
But I'm not sorry
Do your worst and I'll wait to bleed
So set me free
But I'm not sorry
