Breathe life into me
To awaken the inner workings of my souls
Look deep
Past the flaws
Sing me a song of freedom
Free my fellow man
Save me from bondage
Save me from who I am
Reminiscing about the times
The times when my people suffered
The pain and the struggle they overcame
Memories of what happened then
To what it is now
Free me from this world
The discrepancies of today
I am who I am because of those who treated me
Treated me like the dogs they were
The wounds that I have affect who I am today
I reflect and digress
I overcame the past
I am free and unbound
My life begins
