LYRICS



Creed



Two steps closer, a thousand steps away

Wake to the system till I don't know the way

My hands blistered but now numb to the pain

My mind twisted in this cruel democracy

But now I'm free, now I'm free



Feels like a thousand years taken from me

Choose my priorities but they're shoved in my face

My destiny in life so far away, so far away

But now I'm free, now I'm free



Oh I guess it was a good ride

Looking back I feel the same

I guess it was the last time

No regrets, who's to blame



Showed me how to live my life now

Very different from my own

A simple explanation

Further from the toll home



I'm leaving now, I said I'm leaving now

I said I'm leaving now and I got no place to go

Oh yeah

I said I'm leaving now, I said I'm leaving now

I said I'm leaving now and I got no place to go



But now I'm free

Now I'm free

Now I'm free, yeah

Now I'm free, yeah
