lyrics

Well you built yourself a cage and threw away the key
I’ve been searching for it darlin’ down on my hands and knees
If I find it, do you even want to come out of your cell

Now it’s been so many years since you put yourself away
You’ve forgotten what it’s like not to have to live that way
The whole world is waiting, to bless the day that you come out of your shell

Raise your voice, rattle them bars
You don’t have to be your own prison guard

It’s not for me to say what these things mean to me
It’s clear there’s something in the dark that only you can see
But I know there’s magic in the story you’re dieing to tell
If you can ease the part inside your hear that rings that warning bell

Raise your voice, rattle them bars
You don’t have to be your own prison guard

The first thing every morning, the last thing every night
I say prayer for every soul that’s hidden from the light
Who by their choosing, won’t let love in to break the spell

Raise your voice, rattle them bars
You don’t have to be your own prison guard
Find your rage, rattle that cage
All you got to lose is another day

Jafar Thorne Berkeley, California

Jafar Thorne has been singing since before he could talk...as a small child growing up in the foothills of the central Sierra Nevada, his earliest memories include making up songs and singing "guitar" solos to the car radio.

His new album "Dark Matter" is a collection of songs about the underworld journey of the soul, human interconnectedness, and the search for love and meaning in one's life.
