The Get away

When you need to get away
to be the person you truly
are
Just grab your hat and coat
and follow your guiding star
You may have to give it all
up, and show up empty handed
But look at those chains you're
wearing and your heart will
certainly demand it
It takes courage to soar like
an eagle for those who'll
take the dare
But compared to a lifetime
in prison
Why should you really care?~
