Taunted

I知 taunted with my own existence
I知 taunted with my own persistence
I知 taunted with what is mine
I知 taunted with what is divine

Everything is within hands reach
I can almost touch them each
Each time I reach, I fall
From the bottom, I hear them call

This last fall, I don稚 think I can get out
This time, I知 full of doubt
What if I get up and break down
What if I get up, reach, and fall down

These thoughts hold me
These thoughts cage me
Through the bars I see freedom
Through the bars I see ...Freedom ...

It calls me more than those that put me down
It calls me more than those that I put down
I see birds fly free upon the sky high
I see freedom painted on each face passing by

I feel its plaintive call
I feel it more then the fall
I can taste it on my breath
I can taste it ... I can taste it ... On my breath

It taunts me more than anything
It taunts me with everything
It taunts me through the cage
It taunts me through everlasting age

I feel its pull now
I feel its call now
I open the cage with my life
I open the cage, there痴 no more strife

I知 taunted no more
It taunts me no more
I am free
I am ...Free ...
