I For An I

Im stuck screaming in a place that no one hears a thing I'm on my knees praying for any angel to sing I'm lost without a clue of where I should be I'm stuck in chains just wanting to be free I want to be free from the pain that stole all my dreams I want to be free from the anger that has me busting at the seams I want to be free from hate and everything that it means I want to be free from judgement and the bad people I've seen So I stand up and announce my birth given name So I stand up helping make stars to anything that's plain So I stand up for myself and no longer pass along the blame So I stand up as a warrior fighting for those with no names Now I find peace in a place I oh so long ago forgot Now I throw away all my hate and emptiness that it brought Now I am here as an innocent not afraid to get caught Now I am right where I belong becoming all that I once sought So now I am a leader of anyone looking for themselves So now I help grant wishes like the pennies in a well So now I am my own hero ready to set sail So now I tell my story, and how I simply refused to failNow I am here as an innocent not afraid to get caught Now I am right where I belong becoming all that I once sought So now I am a leader of anyone looking for themselves So now I help grant wishes like the pennies in a well So now I am my own hero ready to set sail So now I tell my story, and how I simply refused to fail
