I Wanna Leave(say NO to illegal immigration)

This is something i wrote about the phenomenon of illegal immigration which takes the lives of hundreds of youngsters as they risk to sink while chasing their dream to a better life.

I wanna leave

I JUST wanna leave

I wanna breathe

I just wanna breathe

I wanna dream

Just let me dream

I wanna live

I just wanna live

 

I’m sick of wasting my time in here

I’m sick of looking for a job and dreaming about a career

I’m sick of denying the existence of this constant fear

Uncertainty, things are so unclear                                           

I’m sick of convincing myself that it’s over

NO, it’s not, you got to get over

You got to get through

And do what you got to do 

What am I supposed to do?

I just don’t know

And my path's foggy

I’m afraid to blow

I’m afraid of my self

But this time I won’t ask for none's help

I’m done and I can see

My only savior is the sea

Get some money and get in a" ZODIAK"

And I won’t be the only maniac

Even though I might end up selling crack

Or got shot,yeah that’s a fact

Still, it’s my only and last shot

To get away and change my life

Oh s**t; I might be risking it

I might be committing a suicide

Though, it doesn’t matter if I'd die

Koz there’s no one to cry

Over this despaired guy

Over this trouble maker and rule breaker

Yeah I regret dropping out of school and acting like a fool

Yeah I regret wasting my time

And I wish if I could turn back the time

I wish if I have listened to the words my mom

And brought her joy instead of harm

I wish I've known much my dad and spent with him much time

I wish I didn’t skip classes just to show off and act like I’m the man

Now I can see clearly but

I’m in my way out

 

I’m in my way out

And I can hear the waves shout

Cash is what I’m dreaming about

I’m in my way out

I can see clearly; I’ve figured it out

Though, there’s lots of cloud

I’m in my way out

Chasing what I’ve dreamed about

I’m in my way out

I’m in, and there’s no way out

 

 

Yeah I know a lot died and passed away

Yeah I know it’s dangerous and this might not be the right way

Yeah it’s so scary and dark

There’s no light, it’s all black

I’m not surrounded by humans, I’m surrounded by sharks

And we’re all on the same boat

Chasing the same dream, that’s the only fault

I can’t talk; a knot’s in my throat

It’s so cold and I ain’t wearing a coat

There’s a problem of overweight slowing down the boat

And i can sense the need for a scape goat                        

We’re 30 and riding dirty

And there’s a need to get rid of 3 immediately

In order to reach the shore safely

2 of us have already been knocked out into the sea

Oh s**t, there’s one left and they’re looking at me

Now they’re pointing their fingers at me

Koz I’m by my own, none's with me

Oh no, they’re coming to me

I can’t breathe and my life is flashing in front of me

School, friends, all members of my family

I got hit in the nose, I’m bleeding

I can hear my mom weeping

And my funeral is what I’m seeing

Everything is falling apart

I Wish I could get back from where I did start

But this ain’t a Nintendo game, it’s wack

It’s just like a bullet; you just can’t call it back

I’m falling into the blue and none’d hear me if I shout

Koz

 

I’m in my way out

And I can hear the waves shout

Cash is what I’m dreaming about

I’m in my way out

I can see clearly; I’ve figured it out

Though, there’s lots of cloud

I’m in my way out

Chasing what I’ve dreamed about

I’m in my way out

I’m in, and there’s no way out

There's no way out; it's so clear

That I've paid money to get here

That I've paid money to disapear

No money no cars

Only sharks scars

And tears warming my mom's eyes

Eventually, for money,i gave my life as a sacrifice
