Be Free

I’m all alone which makes me free

Yet I tug and pull at anyone who will acknowledge me

Somebody come interact with me

Must I beg or say please

Or change the way I act to be accepted

I’ll do anything to not be rejected

As long as my prides not neglected

Going out acting reckless

I can’t take it any more I made a necklace

Hung it from the rafters and pretended

Realizing I am overly connected

I stepped down for protection

Glanced at the crowd in my mind

It was at this moment I realized

I’m all alone which makes free

I could care less who stands next to me

I don’t even care who acknowledges me

There are so many people who choose to interact with me

It starts to drive me crazy

I don’t care if I am accepted or rejected

Who cares if my pride is neglected

Back at the alter I left it

With her and the necklace

It swung out from the rafters

Mentally and emotionally affected

There is no pretending

Unplugged then connected

A surge strip for my protection

Glancing out over the crowd I mention

Life is full of adventures

45 minute lectures

Two people trying to stay connected

In a world where we all die alone

Never remembered until were gone

Yet ever so needed while were singing these songs

Not too sure if I am right or wrong

I don’t even care if anyone else sings along

Marching to the beat of my own drum

Playing loud, dancing around, its all love

You may never understand the lyrics

You may never listen, yet you still hear it

Like a championship belt I wear it

The only fear I have is of being afraid

Nothing out there I do, I am ashamed

I either grow or die from every choice I make

That’s the gamble we all take

I’m all alone which makes me free

Life is a test, wey must set ourselves free

Theres nothing anyone else can do, not even me

Quit looking outside for happiness to be

It’s an internalized part of you as much as it is of me

The rest of us are just for each of us to see

Question and help to discover your own identity

Detach yourself from society

Be all alone, be free

Attach yourself to culture and a slave you’ll be

Extrinsic rewards simply are not for me

Sure I indulge when I’m helpless and weak

Money, cars, clothes, pussy, weed, houses full of greed

I leave that behind me, walking down the street
I’m all alone which makes me free

Intrinsic motivation is all I need

Who wants to be the culprit to give it to me?

Nobody can do that for anybody

Its our choice to let go and be free
