Slave to the past

Religion has ruined me
I used to be free
I can't break away
I was forced to believe


Abuse made my happiness
Disappear forever
I don't know how to deal with this
Medication doesn't make it better


Although Things are looking up
I'm coming out of my shell
No longer a slave to religion
Nor walked over by my peers
The past can't be repaired
I'll always be scarred
Always a slave to my fears
