lyrics

I'm free
From the cities golden anchor
And maybe
I can live how I want now
Any other is gonna be
Better than the place
Where I've been living
And my dreams
Won't be torn apart by culture

But then
I made it to a town
I looked all around
All frowns
Looking back at me
Saying I should
Turn back right now
But I can't agree
I've just broken free
I ain't going back
I truly believe
There's a place where I can...

I see
People giving up
On what they really wanted
And working
Til the years are gone
So they got something
To die for
Some other way
Is gonna be better
Than they way
That they've been living
Nothings gonna hold me down
I've got too much to do now

But then
I made it to a town
I looked all around
All frowns
Looking back at me
Saying I should
Turn back right now
But I can't agree
I've just broken free
I ain't going back
I truly believe
There's a place where
People like me
Are doing what they please
Without society
Keeping them down
I truly believe
Where all creatures can be
Flourish where they please
Without society
Keeping them down
I truly believe
Until I saw
Guns pointed at me...

Don't expect an email
Maybe I'll write a letter
Probably won't remember
All I need is
Vision and the music
My parents know I love them
My friends know what I'm doing
I hope that you're evolving
Having fun
Don't build your life imprisoned
You only get one chance

Life is
Always growing
Everywhere you're going
Sometimes
We think too much
Bout how we're gonna do it
Everywhere you go
There's gonna be
Every single thing
You've ever wanted
Believe
In what you're doing
It's the only answer
Believe
In what you're doing
It's the only answer
No one's
Gonna make it happen
Follow what you're feeling
Feel like your life
It's yours...
