Caged like an animal in this place I used to call home
Want to get out, leave and find someplace of my own
But money talks, which I don’t seem to have none
Walking around my prison seeming to be shunned
Bible says to honor my father and mother always
Respect them to the very end of all their days
But how is it possible if they don’t seem to care
Never givin opinions nor their wisdom do they share
Getting close to movin out and leaving them behind
Reaching for the stars and in some way goin to shine
But not having dads approval for what I believe is God’s will
Wanting me to conform to something else even though its not what I feel
Mother vacant not even seeming to know I’m there
Do I need to get a life raft, go to sea, and set off a flair
To show her that I want to talk to her about anything
Neither one tell me they’re proud for what I’m doin for the King
But I stay strong and continue to pray for the Lord’s guidance
Hopefully they will come around or I’ll get some kinda finance
