Imprisoned

Imprisoned 
Im locked away 
Ive been in a cage
most of my days
Wasted away my young age
All for something that 
Made me a slave 
Now im full of rage 
And full of hate
Shame and pitty yea
They know my name
Drove insane
By the dope through
A poke from a needle's stream
Dope it controlled everything 
My hope just drove away
Now im enclosed
With no where to go 
And im full of strain
Holes and strings 
Puppet hold on me
Controlled by dope
That burns and stings
Left unclean but i 
Do the same thing
A game that hurts my brain
See the demons scream
Tore to the core
At my seams 
Someone please
Help me put a cease 
To this disease
That become routine
I need to pull some strings
Jump dance or sing 
Demon continues to control 
My whole being
Is my soul clean 
Just so much pain 
Need to refrain from
Putting a thing in a vain
In vane plz light my way
I need to see
 so i can be saved
So i keep my faith
Instead of lustful things
Played like a game 
Of spades 
Yea Id misbehaved 
Can i still be forgave?
Will i blow away
Trash in the wind or stay?
Just fade away?
Stand lost at the gateway 
Thats stayed in place
I think of a thought
So heavy i start to sink
Now on the brink
Of a better way to think
I beg n pleade
Free me please
Been beaten 
Mistreated as a heathen 
The demon beat and he beat on me
He deceived deceiftfulness oh so 
Decieptfully 
Please don't seek peace for me
Now they lean on my soul
And my being of every peice of me
I dont wanna know
But i see it
Please give me relief
So i can get at least 
One achievement achieved 
I know ive been disobedient 
But plz believe me
Not trying to deceive u
But nothing is free
No such thing as freedom 
But i need something 
A reason to breathe
A reason to be
2 spikes in my wrist
One in my feet
Hung on a crucifix
To be damed or "FIXED"
swing and miss
Cock the grip
Squeeze the trigger
But theres no clip
Sick of this 
That sits in a pit
My past is my past 
Forget and forgive 
Why have i?
Been left locked in a chest 
Im depressed give me meds
Turns and twist my
Gear wont shift
I just need a lift 
Or list of 
That is what it is
Shoulda listened as a kid
N i wouldnt have done
Have the  i in did
Things ive said 
Regret and stress 
I flip will i quit 
Will it ever end?
Unfortunate the misfortune 
Of the cards delt to my hand
Warped for sure
I feel like I am
Its important that im sure
I can still feel or stand
Or is death outside my door
