Let Go

Let Go

I can't allow this violation of myself

Can't deal with this disaster again,

Can't you see what I've been through?

How victorious I emerged from the hurdles you laid in my way

From the bottom of the world I found my way.

Now you stand there looking at me

Wondering how I survived inspite of all the difficulties.

No,it wasn't you who held me back

It was myself who couldn't talk back

About the injustice I've been forced to endure

While you waited for me to collapse

I emerged back stronger than ever before,

Telling all the oppressed to never let go

To spread your wings and prepare to soar

To hold you head high and just let go,
