Why Can’t They See?

How do I end up in the same place?

A place where they don't understand

Just want freedom

Freedom to go

Freedom to do

Freedom to live a life I choose

Why can't they see they are keeping me for the life I want ?

It's not their job to protect me

They ain't protecting me, they are stopping me for living

What happened to God guiding me?

Stopping telling me about discernment

I know how to pray

I lead with faith with every step I take

Why can't they see they're keeping me from being happy?

Why are they so afraid?

Where is their faith?

People are dying every day

It's impossible to live and not put yourself in harm's way

But they can’t keep me here forever

Trapped by the devil

Why can't they see

Their fears is the devil

Even in my mistakes God still got me

So why they keep stopping me?

Can’t find a middle ground

They're the reason why I'm going crazy

Stop treating me like a baby

I am a grown woman

I am a strong woman

Don’t have to prove myself to them

Not everybody's intention is to kill

I would rather die than to live under their fears

With every bad story they sent me

My reply will always be “at least they got to live”
