There is no more fight in me
I can no longer hold on
Anything i had left inside
Is empty and gone
I will not explain myself
Just know that i am beat
I give up
I accept defeat
So many times
I believed all you said
Now i just wish
God left me dead
No more can i smile
Or hide all this pain
When alone my tears fall
Like a thunderstorms rain
So take all thats left
Whatever that maybe
Uncuff my from this life
God just set me free
Days of letting ignorance slipping by
Seducing my innocent silent soul
All in the name of satisfaction
Hitting my kind gesture of hospitality
Eating up my futuristic nourishments
Letting go of all the sarcastic ill says
And leaving fingerprints on my double coloured face
To weep with convulsive breath in silence
Are over.
I can't recall the last time i was laid, rather
I Sit on my moist blanket enough to smear
I didn't get in to imagine how it's done
I am in to please and be pleased the pleasure
To speak aloud and get life with no pressure
Will the law hold me for shutting you forever
For i endured enough to speak of no more
You pushed me to uncuff my silence
And put an end to the nightmare violence.

Office what do we have here, handcuffed to this big chair?
She looks mighty young, what's her awesome crime?
Got to affix the penalty and the time to the crime...
What did she do, kill her mama and her pa...rob a bank, steal a car?
She looks mighty young, was she carrying a big stick, knife, a gun?
Is she a sniper, dope peddler, a user too - Speak up officer what did she do?
Did she try to do away with you too? Who called for you to bring her in?
You chased her into the home of her friend and bodily brought her in!
Jay walked!...eleven years old! Gave you some sass - man uncuff that child fast!
Boy, you have really done it now! You are in big trouble and so are we -
Man set that child free - Office I know you've been told to uphold the law,
But this time I think you done gone too far!
Lord have mercy! Stop crying child we are calling your mama right now!
