Chained

I succumb These bonds... they've broken me trapped in this endless loop where i can find no peace this life It pummels me The pestle and mortar are much too heavy For my limp shoulders These people They're frightening The demand from me constantly To be much more than i am I wish to be set free This baggage it pulls on me It drags me to the deep I insist mutiny But im no more than one man I traipse to the edge Please... Grab my hand

The weight of those chains can make moments unbearable at times. Keep looking up, because I'm reaching my hand out to you. ~ Brandy
