"I Am From"

I am from the music within
From the notes that I sing, 
And the dreams that I'm in
 
I am from broken promises,
The trusts that were taken away,
And the heart scaring words that everybody says
 
I am from the friends that that make me laugh
And the ones that made me cry
 
The giggles and smiles,
And the fun adventures,
We're running for miles
 
I am from the ones that have been with me from the beginning
And the ones that promised that they would never leave,
Yet they already did
 
From the yells,
The screams
 
I am from broken hearts
And shattered dreams
 
I am from a life that I'm constantly questioning
A life where I'm constantly dreaming
 
I am from a voice inside me
A voice that's always telling me to just be
 
So,
This is me
And that's something you need to see
 
I am who I am 
And this cage has been unlocked,
I am free
