Sometimes I get scared
When I feel afraid
My mask has slipped
And I am showing
The real me... inside.
This shell of captivity
To be forced to hide
The ones within.
Suppress the gifts
Of the third eyes' sight.
Deny freedom
To the inner child's mind
These are my powers
And I am forced
To hide away... myself
To appear just as they
Uptight, selfish, angry
Faithless, hopeless, lonely
But, to do this
I must not be... me
That is unfair
He said " I am what I am."
So why not?
Let me be... me
Why must I be scared
Whenever I am afraid
My mask has slipped
And I am showing?
