Do you know why you want to run?
Life can seem harder sometimes,
but we just try harder to run faster.
I am like a bird, I got caught
now I am wishing to be free.
Life wasn’t promised to be easy,
though I wish it wasn’t like this.
Sometimes I’d like to be free
from this cage that’s holding me.
I am feeling like ashes blowing in the breeze, I am not sure where
I am going to land.
Though I know it’s not forever,
this journey is dragging me under.
I gasped for air only to choke
on the dirt that has covered my life.
I will not give up,
I am just exhausted from this fight.
