Paroles de Breakaway

One, two, three

Inmate 254, just another number on C Block
6 a.m., tray's on the floor, feeding me bologna and sheetrock
Counting down them days till the sun shines on my face
Break away

Got an old lady who lays me down crazy, she'll be waiting in the parking lot
A few more days on good behavior, gonna give her everything I got
Counting down the days till the sun shines on my face
I break away

I'm busting out this coffin and I'm breaking out the chains
Can't hold me down for nothing, they can't keep me in a cage
Break away
Break away
I'll break away
Break away

Celly hit the buzzer, took off my number, and they gave me back my boots
Stepped outside looking for my ride, no sign of a you-know-who
Changed the locks on the single-wide, that ain't my truck outside
I'll break away

I'm busting out this coffin and I'm breaking out the chains
Can't hold me down for nothing, they can't keep me in a cage
I'd go home to Mama, but she don't want the drama, and I really don't blame her much
Just a lifer on the road, going where it goes, don't know where it's ending up
Only thing I know is true, all I was born to do is to break away
I'll break away, I'll break away
I'll break away, I'll break away
I'll break away
Break away
I'll break away
Break away
I'll break away
