Ties That Bind

Cutting away the narrative relay
Downtrodden, repressed of soul
That's in our bones
Innate proclivity
To see what good could be
Rising up from beneath;
This was not the ending

It's like a spell on you
With everything to lose
A guiding voice from a
Name you never heard

Indoctrinate decay
The scaffolding of hate
No longer shrouded by devilish Disguise
That you despise
Unravel and create
A new path for today
Not simple musings of a
Timid little girl

It's something new for you
To learn how to work through.
Step in the void of a
Feeling to explore

Your will to cut the weight
Fear makes you play it safe

No two days are the same;
Old patterns set aflame
New days of discovering
End the suffering
Willingly embrace
The changes that it takes
You'll reap the reward of
All that you deserve

And if you pull through
You'll see out of the blue-
Disarm the deleterious is
What you've had to learn

If you're willing to
Uncover your truth
You'll be taking a dive into a
Whole new world
You have to do the work
Or progress will get burned
Cuz looking back comes with a
Price you can't afford

Your will to cut the weight
Fear makes you play it safe
You know it's not too late... my friend
To cut the ties that bind

In this foreign space
Get your footing set in place
It'll feel mysterious but
Let the world unfurl

With new habits to brace
Everything starts to change
A feeling of risk that you
Need to ignore
And if you forget,
After setbacks you reset
It'll guide you home to a
Curse that has been cured

And when you cut the ties
That burden your mind
Your gypsy heart will
Find itself a home

Your will to cut the weight
Fear makes you play it safe
You know it's not too late... my friend
To cut the ties that bind
