Draping Chains

I was meant to be free

Not trapped by the chains of society

The labels that are assigned

Seem to block us in and bind

I was meant to be free

Free from what they say I should be

Work nine to five

Pay bills and die

These chains laden with judgment and expectation

All this weight is like led shoes

Led shoes lead to dead shoes

A waking and walking corpse

Nothing more than a zombie

I was meant to be free.
