They can trap your body but never your mind.
And as time progress everything will be just fine.
Just continue to pray to God and believe in the word.
Your moment of freedom is here.
Until then I will continue to build up the name.

I cut myself for the first time and got the rush of my life.
Blood went everywhere I was stunned at the sight of the knife.
All I felt was pain at first but then it slowly started turning into an adrenaline  rush.  
I was tough and just amazed at my slit wrist that I just sat and stared while I kept my words on a silent hush.

If I told you I miss you will you take it as game
If I told you that you had my heart still would you see me the same.
I told you that you're more than good looks but you take it as game.
I tried sparking your brain but all of sudden things started to change.
Now out of depression you constantly drink and pop pills.
You want that feeling of being out of your body to the point your life you don't want to feel.
You find yourself laying on your back for the wrong guys.
Believing anything they tell you just falling for the lies.

Successful woman I'm trying to become a part of you.
You are far past superficial and have a crazy work ethic that I admire in you.
I don't see myself chasing nothing anymore but you while you chase that dream.
And I see you working and going to school  and getting it by any means.
Far from ordinary you easily change between a dress and some jeans.
Aspiring to have it all Im just loving your potential to be great
Just hoping I can slowly step in and could be in your fate.
Driven to have it all the last thing you worry about is rest.
Instead of running the streets you study and doing what it take to pass all your big test.
Never caught in the strains of getting caught up with your peers.
You make grace look good as you overcome the world fears.

I wish we weren't friend and that our lips can become one.
I wish I can just open my mouth and share my true feelings.
I feel stuck that I had a crush this long and closure never came.
It's tough seeing something so beautiful and knowing you will never have it.
Maybe years later once were completely apart, this can be something we laugh about.
Until then I'll stay in my line.

I tend to think lady liberty is blind from a crooked system deep within.
Also she tends to be harsher on those who have a little darker skin.
Years later I'm still feeling her effects with the constant storms and hale.
Think about it how does a minority race take up a majority of the jail cells.
Land of the free, home of brave.
Built up by torture and capture along with the entrapment of slaves.
And once you set them free you label them as being less than a man.
Add in implication of Jim Crow laws in a large unethical plan.
Segregation was legal followed by discrimination.
Tie it in with institutionalized racism what a melting *** of a nation.
How do you stop the movement of those when it come to being black.
Import drugs into the ghettos and have them strung off of crack.

I remember getting the call that things are over.
I did not care because my heart was getting unattached.
No tears or remorse I took it in like a soldier.
The heart beats on with a feeling that will never be matched.
I took all the pictures down no need to ever wonder.
New love will eventually be in the air.
