    BREATH OF LIFE


    To spend my whole damn life in one place
    Would kill me…slowly.
    Year after year,
    I trace out my journey to
    FREEDOM.
    No limits-just me.

    I wanna JUMP out of the crowd…be EIGHT FEET TALL!
    Giant, like the TITANS.
    I wanna thread my hair with SUNSHINE.
    I wanna dream BIG like Dr. King.

    Who doesn’t desire
    POWER?

    ‘Round here they got nothin’.
    They got everything for someone unlike little me.
    They never sense a better view.

    I hear the green on the other side callin’ my name.

    I’m CAGED-Surrounded by thick glass walls.
    Let me out of this JUNGLE with no trees.


    Even after the smoke clears, it ain’t too late to take off the mask.

    I wanna FLY through the ocean.
    I wanna face the storm and travel through a twister.
    I wanna dodge the DANGER of myself.

    When’s it gonna be my time to take my
    First

    BREATH OF LIFE?
