Wings Of Freedom
Prison bars all around
blocking out every site and sound
Locked in a cell, day and night
cant wait to see the worlds first light
somedays i wish i could fly
over the wire and into the sky
But it is time i have to face,
in this awful wretched place
calender days crawl slowly by
but im patient i will not die
waiting for that final day
when ill pass the gate and walk away
free to be happy in this land
and walk the beaches warm white sand
till the day i sit and rot
on this hard cold metal cot
guards always on my back
telling me how much i lack
who are they to tell me this lie
cant they see i dont want to die
being caged is a terrible thing
like a lonely bird who can not sing
on the wings of freedom i pray
to one day finally fly away
