Fading Black Walls
To be a great kid could light up my day
but to live in black walls takes that away
i sit there and stare
as i cry a long tear
for in my black walls
my beating heart just falls
if the wall had some light
and it wasn't so tight
than my black walls would leave out of sight
my tears go away
as here comes a ray
shining on my face
than my heart starts to race
i think of the joy for which i may see
i think of joy that will change inside me
a black wall can sometimes mean alot
but i didn't have to sit there and rot
i always had light in my mind
and i was just a little bit blind
for my family was there
and i didn't even care
i wanted to attracked them all
but for that same reason i lived in BLACK WALLS
