Break Free

The chains that bind
Just make you blind
It keeps you disinclined
And in a constant grind
Break free, these chains that keep you intertwined
Close your eyes....relax and unwind

Circumstances are not definite
Your potential is infinite
Let your light show you the way
To overcome the hurdles of another day
Through pain, misery, sadness and sorrow
You WILL forge ahead to another tomorrow

Yes you are able to live your dreams
Just ignore the painful tormented screams
Of those dark moments that plague the past 
Make your dreams and goals steadfast
No mountain is too high, no cut is too deep
Do not allow anything or anyone to make you weep

Fate is something we cannot predict
So don't imprison yourself like a convict
Will you allow barriers and emotions to withhold?
Ultimately you are the only one that can break the mould

So break free from these chains that so tightly bind
Believe in yourself and your own mind.
