Out Of The Chains That Bind Me

Sometimes I'm sick of grappling with the hurt and the pain
Sometimes I'm sick of being what people expect of me
And sometimes I just want to be free
Away from these chains that hold me down
Keeping me strung to the earth
Like chords that have to play the same sound

But I don't want to be like that
I want to be more free
I want to be more me
I want to explore places I've never seen
I want to see colors in ways no one else has ever seen
I want to go the distance
I want to climb a mountain
I want to break rocks
I want to do things people say I cannot

I'm an overachiever because I have to be
I'm a president because I want to be
I'm a singer because I love it
I'm a dancer because I enjoy it
I'm a poet because I can write the words
And express it with all my emotions

Don't tell me who I can and cannot be
Leave that only up to me

I want to break free from the constraints
Of society's expectations and norms
I want to spread my wings and fly
To places unknown and unexplored
I want to break free from the shackles
That bind me to the ground
I want to soar high above
And never look back down

I want to breathe in the fresh mountain air
Feel the wind in my hair
I want to climb high peaks
And feel the strength in my own physique
I want to break rocks with my bare hands
And feel the power surge through me
I want to do things that challenge me
And push me beyond my limits

I want to be a trailblazer
A pioneer of my own destiny
I want to carve out my own path
And leave a mark for others to see
I want to be bold and brave
And never back down from a challenge
I want to be free to be me
To live my life with passion and zeal

I refuse to be confined by the expectations
Of society or those around me
I will break free from these chains
And chart my own course to destiny
I will be fearless and bold
And never shy away from the unknown
I will be the master of my fate
And the captain of my soul

So let me be free to be me
To explore, dream, and discover
To push boundaries and break through
To be the best version of myself
I will not be held back by fear or doubt
I will break free from these chains
And soar to new heights
For I am unstoppable, unbeatable, and unbreakable
