Lyrics
Waking up, breaking out
This is what it's like to be free
Rip it up, tear it down
This is what it means to be free
Jet sounds a distant roar behind you
As you try to clear your head
You start to look and answers find you
Your inner purpose lies ahead
Waking up, breaking out
This is what it's like to be free
Rip it up, tear it down
This is what it means to be free
Waking up, breaking out
This is what it's like to be free
Rip it up, tear it down
This is what it means to be free
One step to calm the storm inside you
Unlock the secrets in your head
Not another day, no more confusion
No more living like the dead
It seems it's just out of sight
The ones with answers always get their way
And I think they should know
That I'm coming for them
Now
Waking up, breaking out
This is what it's like to be free
Rip it up, tear it down
This is what it means to be free
Waking up, breaking out
This is what it's like to be free
Rip it up, tear it down
This is what it means to be free
Waking up, breaking out
This is what it's like to be free
Rip it up, tear it down
This is what it means to be free
