I had it tough when I was just a kid It didn't matter what I It matter what I did I felt the doubt for what I lacked from the start It did a number on my It could touch my heart
'Cause I had enough imagination Just enough to keep the somehow I would think of what to do When I'd get lost in a momentary of emotion All the came around to help me through
blows fast changes, wind blows past pages All I see is I don't need High strung tightrope walk, ticking time clock Scratch my name off, cut chains
I'm free, out of that prison, I am free those words of wisdom, let it be Nobodys gonna put the inside of me
And in the stress to be the best I've it all I've slammed the doors, I've the locks I've laid the bricks, built the walls Nobone tell me back then why joy eluded me Kept bumping that misery Locked up deep inside of me
Took rage and I, turned that page and I Packed my tools, went to school, yeah And I my graduation, and I hold my Ph.d In crash test blues I those dues
I'm free, kickin' out of prison, I am free Singin' those of wisdom, let it be Nobody's gonna put the inside of me, yeah
flies by in photographs And paper and songs Here I in ruby slippers taps takes me home
Yeah, I'm I'm
I'm free, kickin' out of prison, I am free those words of wisdom, let it be Nobody's gonna put the inside of me, Ohh yeah
I'm I'm I'm Yeah, I'm
flies by in photographs And paper and songs Here I stand in slippers Three taps me home
Yeah, I'm Yeah, I'm I'm Ohh I'm
