Freedom To Nothng To Something

If I would have known, one was walking away from freedom My thoughts would have turned the surface My footsteps would have been different Starting with going backwards with my guts It was only my fault Not understanding my own body, mind, and soul Now, due to my walk These handcuffs have taken control Taken my freedom Getting inside this car Took me so far Far away, from my own walk Only walking, I was doing Is walking forward Forward into these brick walls Bars surrounding my eye sight Strangers trying to read me While discipline is holding me down My meals are done from a dog’s bowl Cho~cho~cho Is the freedom I’m walking now Mishandling my actions put me on this route Imprisonment took my flexibility Acceptance is all I have laying on this moonshine These ceilings have no pathway Only a trace of loss innocence became my trail For I cannot continue to fail Nor, keep missing the boat I must take this moment to the next level Command something into my freedom Domination must be my warrant Backbone become my license While my willpower becomes my courage Turning my freedom to nothing to something From something to nothing to freedom ~ Love Mom~
