I thought about running away, but I wasn’t sure where I should go
I thought about leaving The Garden, would I miss all the people I know?
Stamp me a ticket for a one-way flight to the place where the civilized be
But I’m human you know so wherever I go I take primitive nature with me

(let me out...i’m a virgin to sin…)

I thought about changing my name, but I wasn’t sure who I should be
I thought about trying to evolve, maybe god wouldn’t recognize me
Change my height and I’d walk upright, trade my fur for a suit and a tie
But who cares how you’re dressed when your world’s a big mess? How I wish I wasn’t human I’d cry (let me out)

Let me out of here, maybe I can disappear
How will I survive in the world outside?

I thought about using my head, for something more than trying to survive
Cabbage and kings and the nature of things and theorizing if I’m really alive
If my brain could give birth to a thought that had worth maybe something transcendental and pure
But chaos and pain come from the very same brain and I wonder if I’d think of a cure
I thought about starting a utopia, it could be like something out of a dream
Me and my tribe in a pretty high rise with dominion over everything
Remove myself from the dust of the ground and live the way that I know that I must
But whatever I do one thing remains true everybody’s going back to the dust (let me out)

Let me out of here, maybe I can disappear
How will I survive in the world outside?

He Will Add. I’ve been watching you. You’re lucid. You’re awake in your dreams. But you dream while you’re awake. I know why you haven’t been sleeping. You’re seeking the truth. The truth is seeking you too.

I thought about eating the fruit, but I wasn’t sure how it would taste
Would there be a big bang at the base of my brain? Would my sweet innocence be erased?
I’m so very close to the thing I want most, I’m the cat curiosity killed
Seems the way that I’m made I could not have obeyed makes me wonder…
If I really have free will

The power of the world is clear. But there’s a power on the outside that is more powerful than the power on the inside. In other words, the power on the inside can’t hold when the power on the outside is greater. I want the world to see you. I want the world to know. (REV. DR. JENNIFER S. LEATH)

You can make me sing your hymns but freedom’s on my mind
The dissidence that grows within is driving me outside
