Loss of ambition
Fooled by superstition
I am awoken
My dreams lay broken
Idle ears misunderstanding
But scholars are so demanding
Eye of the beholder gouged by the maker
Was it wrong of me to believe?
That I could bring a gift to society
Corporate masters have their selfish plans
Iron fists overpower open hands
Steal our passions to fuel their greed
Now I see why my faith has failed me
It kills me slowly
Like a knife cutting deep
Will my role define me?
Align me
Confine me
To caricature of myself
In my cell
In my hell
Will my dreams stay behind glass?
Alone in dark rooms, I ruminate
Done searching for hope to illuminate
Isolated by my creative mind
Relationships I've left behind
Blessed with this great divine gift
But Canens has gone adrift
Fatigued by these tests
Awaiting my rest
In my bed
In my head
So I can dream forevermore
The murky shores of insipidity displease me
Open water's where my heart leads me
Who the f*ck am I to question what's meant to be?
If this world is mine for the taking
And this prison's of my own making
Then I'm a victim of my own affliction
Break down these walls of constriction
I'll choose to use these hands to create
Even though the world seems to breed hate
Smash through the glass, the songbird's flying free tonight
Breaking habits
As I stretch apart my eyelids awake
And think of all the things I must take
I remind myself that I'm nothing special
Fate is merely coincidental
I tap energy from anxiety
And swear I won't collapse from grief
And though there may be no heaven or hell
I stand and force myself out of my cell
To make something of this life I've been gifted
And force my nightmares to be evicted
Changing
Direction
Setting
New course to sail
Finding
New meanings
From the
Act of dreaming
Living
For the
Feeling
Of chasing rainbows
Slowly
Begin to
Rebuild
Dreams of broken glass
