Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

 

Clever with the lever sever me from this cage.

Pages arrange one right after another.

Further prolific to script historic tactics to paper.

Danger disseminates impenetrable.

Capable will unleash these bars.

Mar by those gone before me.

Only perceive escape is within reach.

Breech through what seems impossible to subdue.

View clues carved on memory wall.

Mull over grasps gist of certainty.

Destiny my friend lies between you and the world.

Whirled to control outcome is yours for the taking.

Breathtaking once you know resolves.

Revolve all around you like an assemblage.

 

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

 

Privilege or not, do not enter or go directly to jail.

Bail me out of this monopoly.

Anomaly changes entire narrative.

Inquisitive put me inside here.

Fear of truth will set me free.

See my eyes are closed at the moment.

Disoriented by the fog of war does to a soldier.

Cornered and beaten around.

Renowned is brought up to be put back down.

Confound like the rest.

Tested, obscured and forgotten.

Stricken by a love sickness proves there’s a lot more to follow.

Hollow for now are the sounds of freedom.

Wisdom carries; intrusive will not bury me from the chapters of time.

Prime is ready to fight back against the sages.

Age waits for no man in this multifaceted endeavor.

Fervor goes on with life no matter.

Falter gets back up in the end.

Defend do not stop believing.

Conjugating mind puts forth an analytical design.

Find, seek and obtain.

Sustain, open your eyes and focus.

Forces can refuse to defuse a situation.

 

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

 

Question nothing, something has to give.

Live by the sword die by the sword.

Word is out on the streets.

Fleet has been assembled.

Ensemble make ready to fire.

Empire is theirs for the moment.

Confinement teaches provability lives by the rules, only to be broken.

Chosen wisely to be is a rogue.

Unload your army.

Formality is out the window.

Sow what you reap.

Keep can’t hold on indefinitely.

Intricately, psychologically play out this strategy.

Hypocrisy is not those you call friendly.

Loyalty is above all.

Befall the rest.

Test their sincerity rely on no one, Shogun.

Won or lost.

Cost nothing to concede before the battle has begun.

 

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.

Let me; let me out of this cage.
