Have you ever wanted out? Out of this cage? Ruled by oppression? Governed by hurt?

lyrics

OUT

On the day I was born
My mind did decree
Life... Would be different for me
The bastard son
Of a catholic girl
Dark of skin
From a different world

Now times were hard
Ma had to work
Pa didn't stick around
The man was a jerk
Same ol' story
Told a thousand times
Some end in failure
For not towing the line

I wanted out
Out of this world
Ruled by oppression
Governed by hurt
I wanted out
But the cage stays locked
Bars won't bend
So the louder I shout
I want out!

Now I worked hard
Night and day
And the harder I worked
The less I got paid
I played the game
Kept my nose clean
Smiled when I was told
Even though i didn't mean it
I sold my soul
For a bag of grain
Until my conscious hurt
And kidnapped my brain

I wanted out
Out of this world
Ruled by oppression
Governed by hurt
I'm gonna get out
Gonna break the cage
Kidnap the airwaves
And vent my rage
I want out!

I've seen the future
And boy it's worse
Building it higher
than your neighbour first
To reach the top
Sell your mother
When you get there
Piss on those under yer
That's your choice
It aint for me
I've had enough
Im gonna set myself free

I'm breaking out
Out of this world
Ruled by oppresion
Governed by hurt
I'm breaking out
Out of this world
Shame I found my freedom
On the end of a baton
Shame I found my freedom
Shame I found my freedom
Shame I found my freedom
Shame I found my freedom
On the end...
Of your gun
