I Want To Be Me
I don’t wanna feel the way they make me feel
I don’t wanna live the way they taught me too
They can go, board up all my windows
But
They will never see where the sun shines from
I don wanna see the world the way they see it
I just wanna talk to the flower in the weeds
They can go and drink the poisoned water
But
They will never see how it kills the ones who watch
Freedom is so very fragile
So let me break anywhere but here
Even though darkness comes at night
If I follow the stars
They will lead me home to you.
