Free

I was made to be free

But my past is trying to hold me

I can’t give up I’m a fighter

But the bonds keep getting tighter

Suddenly my life flashes before my eyes

I see all my truths and all my lies

I see all my regret and all my pain

I see all my pride and all my shame

I can’t let my past imprison me I will not be caged

I keep looking on the bad but I should just turn the page

I look on the good and the bonds loosen their grip

I look harder and they start to slip

I stare at the bonds that hold me no more

I scan the room then open the door

I step out and take in the sight

Its been awhile since I was in the light

I don’t look back I am free

Those bonds no longer hold me
