Once I am free
Bet you I will get more food and fresh air to breath,
Once I can convince you, I need to be free.
The suffocation that i feel is unbearable you see,
Don't you have a heart,come on set me free.
Flying around in circles is making me dizzy,and it is becoming quite annoying,
If you set me free I will visit you and help you get going.
You have to be in a cage yourself to think it is okay to do me like this,
Go a head lift that lock and give us freedom something we both need.
I am getting really tired of waiting for you to see and do,
Once I am free, I hope you will see, finally see the truth.
No one or no bird deserves to be in a cage always and be content with it as well,
Once I am free,I will tell my story of why I h ad to be free from that living cage hell .

Once I can convince you, I need to be free.
The suffocation
by Garth Norman
Oh what I would give to see daylight
Oh what I would give to be free
Oh won’t you have pity on my plight
Because I am
