Yearn Freedom

In a tailored suit, with a company mind
Corporate staff in the daily grind
Beneath this mask, my spirit must soar
To break free from these walls, and feel alive once more

I remember days with the wind on my face
Running wild, no deadlines to chase
Now I'm trapped in this maze, so boxed and confined
Yearning for the freedom, I left behind

Strutting in my heels, trying to feel alive
But my true calling, I can't contrive
I want to laugh and dance, and show my pride
But these office walls hold my dreams inside

Behind my polished appearane, a rebel yearns
For a world beyond the lessons learned
In dreams, I break these chains from my corporate home
To find joy once again and in life to roam

Long meetings and longer hours is the way
Forgetting the joy and working each day
It's time to reclaim my inner spark
The future otherwise is dark

I remember those days with the wind on my face
Running wild, no deadlines to chase
Now I'm trapped in this maze, getting bitter and mad
Yearning for the freedom, I once had

One day I'll cast this suit away
Embrace the freedom, welcome the day
No longer prim and proper, my spirit free
Discovering the life that's meant for me

Beneath this mask, my spirit must soar
To break free from these walls, and feel alive once more
