You Hold the Key

You feel trapped Locked in a desolate world on your own Stuck inside a troubled mind Feeling lost, wandering alone You wonder how this happened You ask, “why me?” All the confusion; the pressure The unbridled stress and anxiety But there's good news in this world The battle, is not you It's the thoughts in your mind The problem, is you thought they were true So listen, don't attach to the words Now clarify the pictures you see New perspectives emerge Images inline with reality The internal world can be traumatic It can appear to be callus and unkind But when you realize you are holding the key Liberation, is just a matter of unlocking your mind
