Prisoner of Fear

Ever since i allowed myself to fear
its like i gave you permission to hold me back
Nomatter how clear forward is 
you come like a blast everytime
i try to take a step
The place i'm in is no different than prisoner

You even have a name Tropophobia
you ran my life for so long but it's time i break you tropophobia
I'm too idealistic to be your inmate, so backwards nomore because forward it's where i'm going
my dreams are too big to let you interfear

Man i'm free at last
i'm no longer a prisoner of fear.
