I CAN'T LEAVE TOWN.

Benjamin Alpha

Oct 30

I've been cleaning my house for seven years, the dirt just won't go away it smells it smears,

In a lonely cage but free, I'm a walking dungeon I cannot breathe,
The system has me on chokehold, I'm getting strangled by my desires and it feels wrong,

Breaking free from these shell, breaking from a hell,
It's never that easy to be fair, many traverse the earth for years but will never get there,

I want to leave this town, feel the true color of my skin dark brown,
I want to feel the wind, in a prison where nothing's for free,

All my friends are sick but they don't know it, life around the sun to them a book full of stories,
All educated all civilized, they can't write their stories it's not a lie,
I need to leave and find the narrow road, I need to scream of all the lies I have been told,

I want to know myself, what excites my soul and where I need help,
I want to find a lover, who removes my skin throws away the cover,
I want to be on fire everyday, I'm a mortal soul but there's a god in me anyway,

Break free like a caged dragon, fly to the topmost because it's my season,
You see many wake up everyday but they're still asleep, never realizing what's going on what this even means,
They get born and they die just as they came, they get old and they spite why is life so lame,

So I'm leaving this town see what I can find, make a name for myself as the one who didn't die blind,
Conquer new lands cause I am a king, die a happy man in my sleep,
Eggs and cages places we can't leave, circles and circles the story never changes it always begins,

I'm a free bird, to fly away from instructions and all things hard,
I want to be ancient, live on honey and milk and practice patience,
I crave to be a human being, there aren't any left in this world so big,

So I'm breaking free, a sight for all to see,

Let's get out of this town.
