I Get Out
Lyricist:Lauryn Hill
I get out I get out of all your boxes I get out You can't hold me in these chains I'll get out
Father, free me from this bondage Knowin' my condition is the reason I must change Your stinkin' resolution is no type of solution Preventin' me from freedom, maintainin' your pollution
I won't support your lie no more, I won't even try no more If I have to die, oh Lord, that's how I choose to live I won't be compromised no more, I can't be victimised no more I just don't sympathize no more
'Cuz now I understand, you just wanna use me You say love, then abuse me You never thought you'd loose me But how quickly we forget that nothin' is for certain
You thought I'd stay here hurtin' Your guilt trip's just not workin' Repressin' me to death 'cuz now I'm choosin' life, yo I take the sacrifice, yo, if everything must go, then go That's how I choose to live
That's how I choose to live No more compromises, I see past your diguises Blindin' through mind control, stealin' my eternal soul Appealin' through material to keep me as your slave
But I get out Oh, I get out of all your boxes I get out Oh, you can't hold me in these chains I'll get out Oh, I want out of social bondage Knowin' my condition Oh, is the reason I must change
See, what you see is what you get Oh, and you ain't seen nothin' yet Oh, I don't care if you're upset I could care less if you're upset
See, it don't change the truth and your hurt feeling's no excuse To keep me in this box, psychological locks Repressin' true expression, cementin' this repression Promotin' mass deception, so that no one can be healed
I don't respect your system I won't protect your system When you talk, I don't listen Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Oh, let my Father's will be done
And just get out Oh, just get out of all these bondage Just get out Oh, you can't hold me in these chains Just get out All these traditions killin' freedom Knowin' my condition Is the reason I must change
I just accepted what you said, keepin' me among the dead The only way to know is to walk, then learn and grow But faith is not your speed Oh, you've had everyone believe
That you're the sole authority Just follow the majority Afraid to face reality The system is a joke
Oh, you'd be smart to save your soul Oh, and escape this mind control You spent your life in sacrifice To a system for the dead
Oh, are you sure? Where is the passion in this living? Are you sure, it's God you servin'? Obligated to a system, getting less than you're deserving
Who made up these schools, I say? Who made up these rules, I say? Animal conditioning Oh, just to keep us as a slave
Oh, just get out Of this social purgatory Just get out All these traditions are alive Just get out Superstition killing freedom Knowin' my condition Is the reason I must die
Just get out Just get out Just get out Let's get out Let's get out Knowin' my condition Is the reason I must die Just get out
