Unchained

No longer caged I’m a soul un-chained…
No longer lost ill be turnin to God…

I’ve been lost in a cage made of bars I can’t see
Been a slave to a system that assures me I’m free
But, I guess there was a definition error
What does freedom really mean in a mental prison era?

I’ve got a box in my house and it tells me what I need
Scared of being different, that’s subliminal terror
So I chase this mirage it leads me into a cellar
Prison clothes from an advert, inside I feel no better man…

Where did humanity go?
– Trapped within a value that a salary shows
On a cheque that doesn’t tell you if there’s happiness at home
Plus there’s kids across the sea raising families alone.. So

I say we rise from this plain
And if I told you we can fly would you tell me I’m crazy?
…. Stuck in a sleep I can’t wake
In my dreams I can’t wait ‘cos, we demand change
Chorus –
And I’m no longer caged I’m a soul un-chained I await elevation, fly with my brain
And I’m no longer lost ill be turnin to God, with wings made of tear drops I fly far away

So this a town of democracy? All I see are cameras
Full of suits in this economy but all look like animals
Banks committing robberies but coppers search the average
Coloured kid, Fitted cap, anything to hassle him

We, don’t give in to the stereotype
Knowledge is power, now they’re scared of our minds
– Their history’s a skeleton they bury their crimes
Revolution is coming and they’re scared of the signs

In the lair of your lies, is where hysteria lies
And even handcuffed I still put a prayer to the sky
Ima die soon, I just hope my message survives
That the youth have a gift, and its the present of time

So I’m, I’m young with a zealous mind
All I know is love I got no mind for the selfish –
I’m… Stuck in a sleep I can’t wake
In my dreams I can’t wait ‘cos, we demand change

Chorus –
And I’m no longer caged I’m a soul un-chained I await elevation, fly with my brain…
And I’m no longer lost ill be turnin to God, with wings made of tear drops I fly far away…

The world is just a collective of minds, any human action ever done, being done or about to be done, has to undergo a thought process before its carried out
So let’s change the way we think
When we can change the way we think, we can change the world…

Chorus –
And I’m no longer caged I’m a soul un-chained I await elevation, fly with my brain…
And I’m no longer lost ill be turnin to God, with wings made of tear drops I fly far away…

‘Cos we demand change
We demand change
