Take Him Away

take him away
I hear them from afar 
their voices echo with evil 
they are angry 
pointing at me 
their shadows are never friendly
cos they are not in my picture
despite how high I go 
they never wish me far 

take him away 
I see them close 
yet far 
I picture their mind set
already am dead in their agenda
cos they never bear no light 
either do they want me alive
that why they always bring 
my past to my future
no matter how hard I try 
they try harder 
just to keep my spirit dead

take him away
am a prisoner in their vision
am weak in their prophecy
am evil in their words 
am not suppose to exist
is their purpose
despite how fast I run 
they run faster
just to be my barrier

take him away
I hear them say 
take him away
terrify his ability
kill his mind 
pollute his energy
then I realized the 
problems of the world 
is only but from
evil humans
nothing more 
nothing less
