I Was Lost but I Was Free Lyrics

My friends used to tell me that I never had the balls

To climb up on that building and tag my name on the walls

See I never dared imagined what it would've been like

If I committed every action that I thought would be right

I had to keep on writing, people telling me to stop

Then I lost my pen down the sewer from a hole in my pocket

Like damn, talk about giving up with these hands

I just couldn't keep up with everybody's demands

I used to be a follower

Now I spend days trying to keep up with my mind

Moving consciousness through time

No matter which way, which direction I'll be fine

I had so much on my plate I bit off more than I could swallow

I have memories of moonlight

I remember walking down the sidewalks at night

There was magick in the air I could feel it in my lungs

Then I open up my eyes, to my surprise there was none

I saw images of starlight

I'm trying to remember but I lost my train of sight

There were feelings and emotions I could hear a slight buzz

Then I close my eyes, to no surprise there it was

I picked it up and started writing

I remember it being so dramatic and exciting

I could fill up every page I felt like nobody could stop me

I walked right through a trap, can somebody let me out please?

It was troubling and fearsome

Sound waves of rhythm damaging my eardrums

I walked a thousand miles through a labyrinth of concrete

The maze that was my neighborhood I stumbled to me feet

All of a sudden I was there

I was free from the misery, I didn't even care

I took everything for granted, I gave nobody respect

When it came to being social I was breathing down my neck

I didn't need nobody's help

I used to sit down and meditate and talk to my higher self

I wonder what it feels like walking through the same land

Imagine it like looking through the lens of an old man

Like, back in my days

Before we had vehicles and busy freeways

Before we hunted animals and cut down every tree

I had so much more to give, I was lost but I was free

I was lost but I was free
