I close my eyes and try to imagine what it is like to be free, people struggle everyday on this planet called earth. I put my arms to the sky and try to feel something, pull them back quick because i'm scared of what's above me. Everyone's face is scattered with pain, Pictures on the wall smiling faces in a frame but they don't tell the full story. I can see the heartache the grief and trouble, Broken dreams like glass shattered in bags of rubble. Sometimes i cry tears and i'm not sure what for, Sad thoughts in my mind play back and forth. I hope one day there will be a light to see, Having nightmares in bed i just want my mind at ease. I can feel peace at last like a windy breeze, It blows the clouds apart and i see the clear blue, I'm getting overwhelmed my dreams have come true. Down falls a drop of rain from a clear blue sky, Splashes on my hear and rolls down my eyes. Its been with me all along like a blessing in disguise, We cry the same tears so i know you feel my pain. Help me wash away my sins i don't want to die in vain, I don't want to feel restrained or an ache in my heart like my muscles strained. open my eyes up let me be amazed, i want the error of my ways to come before the judgement days. now finally my time has come, I close my eyes and feel the heat from the sun. The fire rages from deep inside, I see my life laid out clear as the night sky.
