Soon I'Ll Be Free
I cried thru the days
And I cried thru the nights
For so many years
I have shed my tears
The days were long
The nights were short
I was always tired
But wished I was wired
I kicked with my feet
I punched with my hands
All that pain
With nothing to gain
My enemies were many
My friends were few
I wanted to hide
And never go outside
I didn’t want to live
I wanted to die
My energy was zapped
I felt I had snapped
My fears were strong
My faith so weak
Inside I was mad
But outside so sad
I forgot the doors
When I built my walls
As high as the sky
So no one could spy
With so many lies
I fought hard for the truth
And now that I see
Soon I’ll be free
