Invisible Prison

I'm making my escape; I've bent the bars on the cage
My tongue's as sharp as a blade; my words tear apart the stage
I'll be doing this until the stars fade
My life's an open book, and my heart's on the page
Trying to master my rage while mixing these emotions
With the deepest devotion, parting the seas and oceans
Like Moses, I'm troubling the water in the mainstream
This Orwellian nightmare began as a daydream
The elites have manipulated the nature of law
And have us under surveillance, like nineteen eighty-four
The thought police are patrolling my mind
There's a war going on inside, but I'm holding the line
In this age of darkness, I'm orchestrating golden designs
My poetry captures precious moments in time
Carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders, I climb
Up this mountain, searching my soul for a notable find
Hope is my only motivation, and love is my guide
I wonder what I'll discover once I reach the other side
I've got nothing to hide, but still, I fear for the worst
Big brother's watching, like perverts who are clearly disturbed
Trying to fight my personal demons, deeply ingrained in my head
They've been holding me back and want to keep me restrained till I'm dead
But the truth's set me free from the bonds of Lucifer's lies
Thinking outside the box, no longer institutionalised

For too many years, it felt like I was doing time
I couldn't see the bars, trapped with screws in my mind
Under lock and key, in an invisible prison
Now I've escaped from my brain cell; I'm spiritually risen

For too many years, it felt like I was doing time
I couldn't see the bars, trapped with screws in my mind
Under lock and key, in an invisible prison
Now I've escaped from my brain cell; I'm spiritually risen

For too many years, it felt like I was doing time
I couldn't see the bars, trapped with screws in my mind
Under lock and key, in an invisible prison
Now I've escaped from my brain cell; I'm spiritually risen

For too many years, it felt like I was doing time
I couldn't see the bars, trapped with screws in my mind
Under lock and key, in an invisible prison
Now I've escaped from my brain cell; I'm spiritually risen

The greatest form of control is where you think you're free
When you're being fundamentally manipulated and dictated to
One form of dictatorship
Is being in a prison cell, and you can see the bars and touch them
The other one is sitting in a prison cell, but you can't see the bars; you think you're free
