Should I? Should I not?

Holding a weight burdens my back,

Holding up standards is so monotonous.

Trying to come out, but being shoved back,

All of these sayings of what not to be,

I am only left with what I have to be

And not what I am.

Why can’t people take me for who I am?

Music is the only expression that is still free,

It doesn’t hold back, when I have no choice.

I wanna be out of my cage

But the cat swallowed the key.

The only way out is doing the thing that broke me,

Should I?

Should I not?

To break the standards is to turn my back

On everything I up hold

My decisions are my choice

But the way the

Question is worded

Is my trap.

To break down is to

Fall and land hard,

No wings on my back,

To pull me up

So throw down

Your umbilical noose

So I can climb

Back up and

Finally find out if

I should

Or

Should not?
