They took my freedom away

Made me lose all hope

Brought fear into my life

All because I wrote

I wanted to tell stories

Now hands begin to choke

Took the pen from my hand

Telling me no more

Trapping my soul inside

Closing that damn door

Staring into that kid’s eyes

My mind completely sore

They tried to silence me

But I still spoke
