Maze

Here I am 
finally able to observe the maze from the outside 
And continue to run into dead ends 
Frantic, crazed in the beginning 
But no I have found the exit 

I am just a rat 
But how am I able to be aware that I am 
Does a fool know he's a fool, I think not 
What options does a rat have 

How can knowledge be power 
I have the knowledge 
It takes me where the walls let me go 

Everything is constructed, predicted
The only thing I can control is my mind 

Is my mind just another maze
