Freedom Within Me

I know some brothers who would never see the streets again. But then again......"they are still free.." I seen a lion in a cage at the Zoo, and he had a sad look upon his face. Capture from his environment and then his anger is much to the roar of his raged. But if one is not careful, the enemy will steal your joy and lock your mind as well as your Spirit into such a rage of indignation that it will make you feel consume to a cage. "They are still free.." Animals unlike humans have an objective desire to feel free, so they can roam and expose themselves in their habitant and be free, and survive off the land, the land where God privileged is purity and where civilization is his creative app- roached of Vanity. "Let Freedom Ring," and if one take within the fallable cauces of the value of love and survived the punishment of time. "Then only for a little while one will domin- ance over the viles of their crimes and still be______Free.." {for} GOD knows the inside of your souls, He knows why the birds flies south to escape the frozen tun- tra of the nothern shores. "They have ascertain a course of nature and rest on a branch of the tree..{!!}.." "They are still free." But do you or I...inmates as they call-out and shout your name in an attempt to make you feel like you're never to return. Some are litino's, some are mexicans, Indians and blacks or whites, doing a mandatory ten, but still lockup, for life is hard in the pen and if it excells you to self-esteem yourself, "count it to the good as a lesson learned..(??).." Because deep in the very pit of me, beats the inner roar "Freedom Within Me'like the cageup lion and I could never be free if i make my home and ly alone with that which now controls thee. Stand to your feets, and show that you are strong and have Hope.
