Within

To my brother Justin who died age of 7 from cancer

1997 that was back in the day
That is when me and my older brother used
To go out and play

We laughed we shouted back in the day but
Not anymore since they came
Since they came we feel like we are in chains
gagged and bound to the house all day
We don't have fun any more since they have come
Who are they is what you ask
what are they is what you mean
because this they is a thing.

Slowly devouring me and you
Slowly killing the child inside of you
It is maturity with out a doubt
Just look in the mirror and say get out
Fight the battle all of us know you can win

Just don't forget to lose that small
child that is WITHIN.
