I spent the last 7 years in a haze
Trapped in a maze
Lost in an ocean of sorrow
I was casted away
Feeling God's wrath scold me like a steaming-hot bath
I had to steer me on-track, slowly
For all these years I caught flak
Over coasting through life and loafing
Borderline overdosing
So many beers I tossed back
Catching contacts, smoking cheeba
My inner demons messing up my whole demeanor
I yearn for freedom
As the world spins on its tilted axis,I'm asking:
What's the purpose and reason
For keeping us at bay and limiting the growth of our people?
The heat beams are magnified beneath the glass ceiling
Making my blood curdle
We jump hurdles only to run circles
Tomorrow's uncertain, so I'm seizing the moment
Keep it and hold it
Fall asleep with it, dormant
Our day's gonna come
Despite the rain, can't ever wash away the rays of the sun
One.
