Cage Rebellion

If they cage me... confine with concrete cold under feet absorbs into soul as I grow cold Breathing the air that isn't there...stagnant wrench of condemned and contrite Locked down night sleepless Left with silence and criminal murmurs Fits of reflection disturb and distract I fall asleep to waking angry tired defeated If they cage me... take sun from sky Wind from leaves shoe laces and sleeves take comfort, safety, solace serenity Bartered for bath in depravity Walls scrawled with Hate and Stupidity etched in grimed paint framed in iron bars, walls tainted with disease If they cage me... deprive life of wellness Surround me with venom snakes spit snake pit of guile slithering skillful villains Guarded, forced tough exterior fear and weakness swallowed My self hollowed, Dark eyes deep set, menacing machination feign fascination in the face of combative small talk If they cage me... the brake won't break me The foot presses firm crimps my neck...but yet I breath I breath freely defiant not obsessed with oppressed state Clenched teeth and fists mind clenched to resist The walls will confine me they will never define me never will they ever destroy me
