Opening the BottleNeck and Breaking the Bottle



Breaking the BottleNeck

Half a life spent addicted to feeling abused and down
Don't like staying up so a weak nation is drowned in a bottle

Five hundred years of colonization injected in our blood
Like taking the plague vaccine and AIDS mixed in a bottle

A thousand years of sermons from the religious dark ages
Can't grant our wishes this genie locked in a bottle

After six months of marriage we got used instead of intimate
You put me distant on your shelf closed in a bottle

With the broken shards of glass I cut my neck lace ropes
I'll never again be a less-than or a victim confined in a bottle
