Everywhere I turn no matter where I lookThe system's in control, it's all ran by the bookI gotta get away so I can free my mindEscape is what I needAway from electric eyesNo matter where I amI see my face aroundThey pin lies on my nameAnd put them town to townDon't have a place to runBut there's no need to hideI gotta find a placeSo I won't hide awayXscapeGotta get away from the system, rules and the world todayXscapeThe pressure that I feel from relationshipsHad to go awayXscapeThe man with the pen that writes the liesThat has no inkXscapeI do what I wannaCause I gotta be nobody but meSometimes I feel likeI've gotta get awayI tried to share my life with someone I could loveBut games and money is all she ever thought ofHow could that be my fault when she gambled and lostI'm tired of silly gamesTime to make a changeWhy is it I can't do whatever I want to?When in my personal life I don't live for youSo don't you try to tell me what is right for meTo be concerned about youI can do what I want toXscape (I gotta)Gotta get away from the system, rules and the world todayXscapeThe pressure that I feel from relationshipsHad to go awayXscapeThe man with the pen that writes the liesThat has no ink(I gotta get away)XscapeI do what I wannaCause I gotta be nobody but me(Get away)XscapeGotta get away from the system, rules and the world todayXscapeThe pressure that I feel from relationshipsHad to go away(pressure that I'm feelin everyday)XscapeThe man with the pen that writes the liesThat has no ink(come on now)EscapeI do what I wannaCause I gotta be nobody but me(come on now)When I goThis problem world won't bother meWon't worry me no moreXscapeXscapeXscapeXscapeXscapeGotta get away from the system, rules and the world today(I can find a way)XscapeThe pressure that I feel from relationshipsHad to go away(Pressure that I'm feelin)XscapeThe man with the pen that writes the liesThat has no ink(writing all those lies)I do what I wannaCause I gotta be nobody but me(Xscape and then I do just what I wanna)XscapeI gotta get away from the system, rules and the world todayXscapeThe pressure that I feel from relationshipsHad to go away(See, I've gotta get away)XscapeThe man with the pen that writes the liesThat has no ink(The man that writes the lies)XscapeI do what I wannaCause I gotta be nobody but meXscapeGotta get away (Tell my mother! I gotta get away)XscapeThe pressure that I feel (take it no more)XscapeThe man with the pen(I can't take this kind shit no more)XscapeI do what I wannaCause I gotta be nobody but meXscape
