between a rock ...and a hard place

Why am I here before you now
Must I bleed and die continuously
…standing for what I believe
To pay my dues to your view of society
Or walk away and be ashamed to show my face
No, that will never be
When they say freedom
Is never free…
If it were just me
I would seek to escape a private hell
But we are many
United by progression of expression
Of a divine source
And now…
I understand
Just where I am…
Not where you want me to be
And yet… the man I am
Between a rock …and a hard place
No matter how hard you try
What you have done
Only makes me strong
No technology can do…
To erase my identity
I don’t claim to be a hero
I am a humble man
As if, it were you
Could you, 
would you understand?
But who will state 
my case…

I 
will
And we are
Particles of sand
Standing along the oceans shore
Catching each and every wave
…forever…
