Breaking Free

[Verse] I'm burnin' up Inside these four walls Pressure's mountin' My spirit starts to fall The clock keeps tickin' But I'm stuck in place I've had enough It's time to break the chains [Verse] They talk They preach But they don't understand They drain my soul With their demands I'm tired of playin' their corporate game I need to find a way To find my own flame [Chorus] I wanna break free Break away and fly Leave it all behind Spread my wings and touch the sky Oh I'm breakin' free Breakin' out Oh can't you see? I won't be held down I'm gonna be me [Verse] I was chained to my desk Always on the grind Living for the paycheck I was runnin' out of time I had dreams beyond these office walls But the rat race had me trapped I was standin' tall (uh-huh) [Verse 2] I punched in I punched out Day in and day out I was just a cog in the machine No room to break out But one day I woke up Something deep within me stirred I couldn't take it anymore It was time to be heard (yeah, yeah) [Chorus] I'm breakin' free from this nine-to-five (oh-oh-oh) No more shackles holdin' me down I'm feelin' alive I'm cuttin' loose Breakin' these chains (woah-oh) Gonna chase my dreams No more wage slave No more pain (yeah, yeah-yeah) [Verse] I walked away Left it all behind A job that drained me A state of mind (yeah, yeah) But I found a new place A brand new start Now I'm catchin' dreams And followin' my heart [Verse] No more Monday blues No more endless stress I'm livin' my passion I must confess The office walls are now my stage Where I can shine Where I can engage (ooh-yeah) [Chorus] I quit the old Found something new A better journey I'm embarkin' on with you No more feeling down Life's takin' flight I'm soar above the clouds And everything feels right (ooh-ooh) [Verse] Wakin' up in the morning Dreadin' the day The same old routine It's drivin' me insane But I made up my mind It's time to break free Say goodbye to the chains I'm takin' the leap [Verse 2] I walked out that door A smile on my face Left all my worries in that old Cold place I found a new job Where dreams can ignite A chance to be happy To soar and take flight [Chorus] No more clock-watchin' No more feelin' blue I'm livin' my life And the best part is you I'm leavin' the past Movin' forward It's true New beginnings New horizons I'm ready to pursue
