I TRIED TO DREAM TODAY...

STANZA ONE

I tried to dream today, and boy was it scary

It felt as though my thoughts had turned dreary

I tried to break loose the shackles on my mind

But it seemed so dark, I almost felt blind

These streets that raised me have become a snare

Stripping my creative mind all but bare

For when I seek to reach for the sun

The streets tell me of how that is no fun

When I reach for the pristine moon

The streets play for me the dreaded tune

And even when I aim for the stars

I am branded by the streets with unseen scars
