Help Me See

Help me See I've been around for so long I wonder when my time will come Sitting here at the intersection holding myself all together and waiting i see the dead ends all getting closer Time is running out, speak up, say something! For How long will I be holdin on This burden is becoming an overload How i wish that i could fly to another state inside of mind, or die I set my hopes and let them sail off the shores of no prosperity Am i still far away from home why do I have to go through more I can't even gather a thought I feel so lonely, i feel so terrified If only i could find a single star to shine upon the darkness inside of me now... For How long will I be holdin on This burden is becoming an overload How i wish that i could fly to another state of mind, or die I will set my hopes and let them sail off the shores of no prosperity What hurts me the most is that there isnt an open door people live off some truth too vulnerable to dispute... excuse me, but... how could i drug my intellect with such ridiculous myths For How long will I be holdin on This burden is becoming an overload How i wish that i could fly to another state of mind, or die I will set my hopes and let them sail off the shores of no prosperity i dont see why you cant reply to me why may i think if i may not question thee why is there a class of favoured humans and the rest are a herd of sheep, as it seems pray and pass around the destiny of slavery relentless owes to God, no chance to think For How long will I be holdin on This burden is becoming an overload How i wish that i could fly to another state of mind, or die I will set my hopes and let them sail off the shores of no prosperity
