Independence


Have you ever tried something on your ow,

Because it comes a certain age your gonna be alone,

You can't keep allowing people to deflect all your decisions,

Criticize your religion,

And taking faith for prevision

My life is based on accuracy and precision 

You have two ears and one mouth, talk more than listen

This world is a race division,

But my color doesn't beat my intentions,

And a change is my envision

 

Independence is key in this cold cold world,

Your mind can never be realeased in this nonstop world,

You got to keep going, this world wont let you pause your life,

Cause' if you were to go homeless it'll feel like a wound from a knife

Stop depending on me to make decisions for your life!
