On the way

On the way

I wake up and cry

I pray I was able to fly

My mistakes have my wings torn

Between the ground and the sky

Feet getting tired keeping me alive

Every breath like a popped balloon

Can't find no strength to fill the gap

Afraid I'll die on my back

dreaming of life on the top

I keep my mouth closed

My lips is the key to Pandora's box

No one wanted to help

So I keep it locked until I run out of hope

Don't think it will be long as I'm slipping down this slope

Obstacles blocking the door to the other side

There's no place to hide

As the tunnel looses light

I can only prepare to fight

For my smile isn't enough for a clear path

So I choke down fear and rescue courage

I'm going to need it on my team

If I'm going to reach my dreams

All I want is to be free

If you not going to help then watch out

I'm not going to give up

Cause I haven't left the ground

Despite the words you throw at me

It's not enough to hold me back

Like the dagger my home boy forgot
