I Want to be Me

I just wish you’d let me be.

Why do you keep preventing me from being free?

Why won’t you let me live my own life?

Why do I have to suffer through this constant strife?

You’ve had your turn, now let me have mine.

All the mistakes and wrongs in the world are mine to find.

Please stop holding me captive in this cage

All you’re doing is building unwanted rage.

Let me live – I want to learn on my own.

I want out of here- I no longer want to hear your constant moans.

I beg of you, please set me free,

Let me live my life – I want to be me…
