Being In A Prison

(Revised)

Being In A Prison

I am confined to everyday routine

Same time, same place, same people

Being In A Prison

I have to do what is asked of me

If I do not

Trouble comes my way

Being In A Prison

Confined to everyday conflict

Pressured and shown the everyday foulness

Breathing down on me, choking me, restricting me

Being In A Prison

They never understand what’s going on

They fall into the trade

Pressured and forced the their ways

Being In A Prison

A single mind lashes out

But is beaten

A single mind trying to break out

Being In A Prison

Being controlled, restricted

What we take so long to achieve

Is taken away

Away and into their hands

Being In A Prison
