I'm caged in I'm caged in Famine from the West Bank to Camden Wondering what the sky been plannin', uh She took off from Tel Aviv paper work in hand and Told her parents she would let them know when she landed A fairer nation, lay alas on the other side Of a strip search and ten hour interrogation The hair is raising, on the back of her neck after the check Taking that first step of Americation Bismillah she prayed though her momma and her dad's afraid It's a decision that she had to make Her brother opened up his home she can gladly crash At least until she gets some cash and a pad to stay FaceTime to Palestine let her family and friends see A sense of envy, she's the only one they let leave She said, "Hey, I may have left physically, But my heart my mind and my soul still ain't free" I'm caged in Too much pride so I'm actin' fine I'm caged in They let my body roam free but they trapped my mind I'm caged in It's hard to find anything to pass the time I'm caged in The palace in my brain is a Palestine I'm caged in In a house where an opinion ain't an opinion They tell me how to think controlling the way I'm living The toll on a bright young soul is unforgiving Never thought my own momma would make my mind a prison I believe, believe in what you believe You celebrating jubilee, this worlds new to me so I trust you Listen to the knowledge you're spitting because I love you Maybe it's not your fault and you don't see what you've done to Hinder a developing brain, fill it with pain Judgmental in the mental I admit I'm ashamed I can't tell it to the doc he'll think I'm deranged I can't tell it to my friends they'll think I'm insane I really wanna say f*ck it, and think for myself But it's all I know so I trust it, I live in a hell In my own damn head can't wait til' I'm an old man dead I know it's my job to get out this cell I'm caged in Too much pride so I'm acting fine I'm caged in They let my body roam free but they trapped my mind I'm caged in It's hard to find anything to pass the time I'm caged in The palace in my brain is a Palestine I'm caged in Every day same routine they take count Checking if I died or tried to break out A quick bite to eat far from takeout Then the yard for a bit with the squad we hang out These my people and I love em' now, we're brothers now Fifteen years I been waiting for this summer now It's here and it's weird I don't wanna go This is my life my cycle, this is all I know They handed me all my clothes I forgot about jeans They said I'll start a new life, I don't know what that means My older sister took me in she got a home and two teens Scared of their own uncle say I give em' bad dreams I stare blankly stone cold as a canvas of Banksy I'm angsty, can't help myself and I'm gettin angry Thinkin' bout what the system can do to our lives I read about this and I think I'm institutionalized I'm caged in Too much pride so I'm acting fine I'm caged in They let my body roam free but they trapped my mind I'm caged in It's hard to find anything to pass the time I'm caged in The palace in my brain is a Palestine I'm caged in I'm caged in I'm breakin' out
