[bodytext] => I am a bird in a cage, Barred in at every side, Put where others want, With no say in my own wants, Expected to sing for all, For their joy and happiness, When my own heart is broken, Made to stay, Kept in this prison, I will soon die, I was born to be free, The one thing I am denied, To fly in the great blue sky, Is my only need, Yet they keep for themselves to enjoy, My heart, my love, my song, I like making others happy, To see them smile, How can I live in a cage though? Cant I be free and still make others happy? Or will I live, die, and stay, In this jail of others wants? I am a bird in a cage…..
