I didn't write this. It's from "Adventures in Odyssey" Produced by focus on the family. [It's a radio drama]
i love it. what do you think?
-------------
"I was trapped...
By the invisible lines of my fate.
Tricked by the idea that I could not escape.
Chained up in a ghetto where my father died!
Fooled into thinking I would never go outside.
Imprisoned by my friends who knew nothing but war,
Shakled to everything that had gone on before
I would always be here, in this dead end life of mine,
My heart turned back by a city-limit sign!
And yet...
And yet I now see a way out of my concrete jail.
A new way to soften a heart that's gone stail.
No longer cursin' this place for the wealth
No longer fightin' with man or myself
I understand now what it takes to get real
If you wanna stand up, you have to learn how to kneel
I surrender, my weapons are down at my feet,
'Cause we'll never have freedom, when there's blood on the street.
Thank you."
