Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song after years of blaming my family for issues I had. The bridge came to me when I realized the past is gone once I expose it and let it go. Its really just life.

Lyrics
Exposed
Wake up to the sound of screams
Confused at 1 AM
A 7 year old boy
Lost and wondering
Voices scream bodies fly
Daddy?s drunk again
Mommy starts to cry out loud
My brother?s high again
I?m praying every night
Trying to live my life
Where do I belong?
Falling to my knees
Begging for some peace
Where do I belong
Feeling out of place
Screaming to the night
Where do I belong
Everybody saying
block out all the pain
Where do I belong
Years go by
I?m changing fast
Tempted like he was
Taking drugs breaking laws
Nobody seems to know
I hide behind my brothers? life
We?re closer than before
Selling crack to his friends
Just to even up the score
Chorus
I have been sinking
I just can?t live this way
I have exposed the pain
The pain of yesterday
Its time to learn to live
Its time for me to forgive
Its time to rise again
Its time for me to fly
