Free *bouncing Off of Alicia Keys' Caged Bird*

I've made so many promises and lost so much time everyday is a constant struggle and I'm tired of the hustle don't know how much longer I can last stifled in the present while my dreams are fading fast cause now I know why the caged bird sings freedom and redemption songs it's her only solitude trying to survive a future so cold & dark so I carry my dreams like she carries her song snuggled deep inside my heart praying for God to release me from those who hold the key so the world can finally see...me... spread my wings and fly soaring high through heavenly skies creating my own destiny.
