Freedom

All I want is freedom
Yet I don't get it
I never will
Get out of here
You push me away
Then hold me back
Why can't you trust me?
I have never done anything
That wrong
Always been better than
I could have
Let me out
Do something myself
You always say
I don't know anything
The more you say it
The less I learn
Out on my own
That's where I should be
Just me and my
Freedom
