I Get Out
Lauryn Hill Song Lyrics
(Singing Chorus) 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 (Verse 1) Your stinkin' resolution Is no type of solution Preventin' me from freedom Maintainin' your polution 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 (Pause) (Singing rest of Verse 1) That's how I choose to live... Hehehehe, awhh 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 (Singing Chorus) 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 (Singing Verse 2) 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 Oh, let my Father's will be done (Singing Chorus) And just get out Oh, just get out of all these bondage Just get out Oh, you can't hold me in chains Just get out All these traditions killin' freedom Knowin' my condition Is the reason I must change (Singing Verse 3) I've 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 believed 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, when escape is 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 then 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 (Singing Chorus) Oh, just get out Of this social (?) 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 |
