Caged In

Looking at his eyes through the wall of glass

Who could have known things would've got this bad

I try to crack a smile but, my heart's still sad

Damn,

Still seeing him is quite reflective

Told him that he’s limited

But he said that he’s protected

If he was loose the world wouldn’t respect it

So to remain caged seems to be the better method

His vision is not something others can see

Blind eyes, no lie he reflects me

Locked by the fear of my own creativity

And that man inside the mirror seems to be my only key

But it’s me that keeps him trapped

In confusion I hold him back

I let go, but then I relapse

Back with the block, shot, go run the lap

Full circle

But no more can I continue on this path

Drop all the chains set him free at last

Like Cooke said “a change gon come”

And I will be the greatest when it’s all said and done

I will be what I can be

Really what that is

Is being the best me
