If i can’t be my own reason, be my reason
If i can’t be my own judge, be my judge
If i can’t be my own guard, be my warden
The diary is written of pain and misery
The journal is filled with a resentful past
A painful present is adorned in the subsequent page
The animosity of yesterday
This lie of living the present
Am tired, i want to be free
I want to believe
I want relief
Am tired of refugee status to my life
Did i say my life!
Since it started it aint been mine
It ain’t!!
If can’t be my own reason, be my reason
If i can’t be my own judge, be my judge
If i can’t be my own guard, be my warden
I wanted to live each day smiling
Am crying with a smile now
Lost in a maze of wonder n life
Can’t i be at peace for once?
Can’t a man believe, not be lost?
Or be scared and not be accused?
Question!
Premonition!
Cant find belief
I was scared once
Feared at another
Now am incapable of humanity
Fear! Gone
The smile! Plastic
My guard aint down, yet their aint no war
If i can’t be my own reason, be my reason
If i can;t be my own judge, be my judge
If i can’t be my own guard, be my warden
Be my reason to believe
Like you my reason to live
