In My Own Prison

IN MY OWN PRISON

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up !!!

Wake up to the truth I'm stranded,
Trapped and dont understand it,
These ghetto walls, feel a thousand feet tall.
I close my eyes and wish I could fly like the seagull,
Get a one way ticket like regal,
fly above and be like da ghettos noah dove,
find some olive branch, and maybe by chance find the promised land,
We need a hand from each other,
unity and peace my brotha, its been missin,
I daydream about better livin....
hustle harder still the motto?
stay playin scratch offs to hit the lotto,
But am I lucky? hell no!
I cant stand it!
Wake up in cold sweats runnin from demons,
breathin evil down my neck, feelin decivin,
I keep believin im in the labyrinth of life,
tryin to find the door thats right.
Screamin....
I just want freedom.
I just want freedom.
Im livin in my own prison and it ant easy to escape
Around here you grow up and die in the same place,
Always said Id be somebody, but ive become one of the same,
and right about now id do anything to change.
