Lyrics
I won't be living in chains
I refuse to live constrained or restricted
I won't be living in chains
Reiteration of the refusal to live in chains
Chains, whatever the cost, doesn't matter take em off In their face
Chains, regardless of the cost, should be removed boldly and directly in front of others
Let 'em see you step out of your comfort zone
Show others your ability to step out of your comfort zone
Some people in my life, took me for a ride
Some individuals deceived or manipulated the singer
Pretending to be wise while lighting up a fire under me
People pretended to be wise while causing trouble or conflict
It's something crazy but I won't be living in chains
Despite the craziness, the singer is determined not to live in chains
Just to be free, I won't keep hearing them say
The singer won't accept hearing demands for just a little more to be free
Gimme just a little more, for your own good is it ever gonna be enough, maybe I should know better
Questioning the adequacy of what is given and considering the possibility of knowing better
Take em off with me
Inviting someone to remove their chains together
Bright, a diamond in the rough, yeah it's always been a really tough ride
Describing oneself as bright, a valuable individual in difficult circumstances
Let em see you shine when they lose control
Show your brilliance when others lose control
Someday you will fall from you pedestal
Forecasting a future fall from a pedestal
Down there on the cold ground, remember what they told you and me
Reflecting on advice received while on the cold ground
No I'm not evil, for wanting to be me
Denying evil intent for wanting to be true to oneself
It's something crazy but I won't be living in chains
Despite the craziness, the singer is determined not to live in chains (repeated)
Just to be free, I won't keep hearing them say
The singer won't accept hearing demands for just a little more to be free (repeated)
Gimme just a little more, for your own good is it ever gonna be enough, maybe I should know better
Questioning the adequacy of what is given and considering the possibility of knowing better (repeated)
Maybe I should know better
Reiterating the thought that maybe the singer should know better
Give me that something, that one thing, yeah help me help you
Seeking something essential and asking for assistance
Even if I liked it, that lie is not worth believing
Rejecting the value of a lie even if it seems appealing
It's something crazy but I won't be living in chains
Despite the craziness, the singer is determined not to live in chains (repeated)
Just to be free, I won't keep hearing them sayingsay
The singer won't accept hearing demands for just a little more to be free (repeated)
Gimme just a little more, for your own good is it ever gonna be enough, maybe I should know better yet I'm always in the middle of a battle with chains
Questioning the adequacy of what is given and considering the possibility of knowing better; always in a battle with chains
Just let me out
An emphatic plea to be released from chains
Give me that something, that one thing, yeah help me help you
Seeking something essential and asking for assistance (repeated)
Even if I liked it, that lie is not worth believing
Rejecting the value of a lie even if it seems appealing (repeated)
