Cage of Stone

It's time for me to go            
It's time for me to be my own              
It's time for me to show              
It's time for me to be known              
             
I'm dreaming of the world I could know              
I'm running I'm not gonna be alone              
I'm living but now it's time to grow              
I'm breaking my cage of stone        
   
It's time for me to go  
It's time for me to be my own  
It's time for me to show    
It's time for me to be known  
   
I'm dreaming of the world I could know    
I'm running but I'm not gonna be alone  
I'm living but now it's time to grow  
I'm breaking my cage of stone  
      
             
I'm going to keep fighting this war              
I'm gonna kick open this door              
Send life's hate right to the floor              
Not letting it contain me no more              
I'm gonna fly I will soar              
I will make riches from what's poor              
I will take my world tour              
Write my own lore    
Let out a roar        
And figure out what life's for            
       
             
Opportunity is on it's way              
Make bricks from drops of clay              
Make beauty from words you say              
Turn the night into the day              
Sing this like a bluejay              
You will be okay              
Stand your ground and just stay              
Make the darkness have to pay              
On your knees go pray              
Listen to your heart don't just obey                    
             
It's time for me to go              
It's time for me to be my own              
It's time for me to show              
It's time for me to be known            
             
I'm dreaming of the world I could know              
I'm running I'm not gonna be alone              
I'm living but it's time for me to grow              
I'm breaking my cage of stone              
             
I'm living underground              
Darkness all around              
I hear a distant sound              
Look what I found              
My hope's tied and bound              
Stuck on burial ground              
I hear a hound              
The king is crowned              
He is renowned              
And time is now rewound              
             
Right back to where you took a step in              
At the top but dragged down by sin              
Your survival you want to win              
Your life you will begin              
Find your power from within              
It doesn't matter where you've been              
Lift up your chin              
Write it down your weapon is a pen              
Make your mind a lion's den              
And become not a little boy but one of the many men              
             
It's time for me to go              
It's time for to be my own              
It's time for me to show              
It's time for me to be known              
             
I'm dreaming of the world I could know              
I'm running I'm not gonna be alone              
I'm living but now it's time to grow              
I'm breaking my cage of stone              
         
It's time for me to go          
It's time for me to be my own          
It's time for me to show          
It's time for me to be known          
         
I'm dreaming of the world I could know          
I'm running I'm not gonna be alone          
I'm living but now it's time to grow          
I'm breaking my cage of stone

Author's Note
Song and rap duet. I don't have anyone to sing it yet. If you want to let me know. I thought it would be cool to perform with someone. Let me know what you think.
