    The Key

     He looks at what he's become
    since his life has changed

    He always thought he'd be someone
    but only built a cage

    Youthful dreams are full of hope
    then drift away with time

    He blames himself for it all
    his rhythm lost it's rhyme

    He feels he's lost and it's too late
    he fails to find the key

    To open wide his prison gate
    allow his spirit free

    you know, its sad that some people are institutionalized by lies for some crime they didn't even do and then their lives are ruined because they have been treated wrong for so long. And some criminals learn from their mistakes but not alot. I may not be in that cage but i feel as if Im in prison too with invisible walls that I only seem to run into...
