Jada

walk with your hands on your feet
and its keeping you down
open your eyes
it's okay to dream like a child

dare to be brave
kiss the world with your smile
sift through your core
you'll find diamonds inside

laugh as the sands slid backwards in rhymes
slide through the glass
building mountains in time
Jada it's time

she's got blood on her hands
and her head in the sky
she's reaching for chance
as she pierces her mind

begging for truth,
she hears the Earth growing old
it's humming a beat
says to do as she's told

restless
her bones
they stir in her sleep
yet the Reaper denies her the peace of the deep

tattered
the strings of her heart skip a beat
skip a beat
dissolving her chains
and she sets herself free

as our stories unfold
we find the world makes us blind
cards in our hands
hide the fear in our eyes

paying our tolls
defending our lives
seeing our lights
as we learn we can fly
