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
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
