[F#m]
[Bm] [F#m]
[Bm] I get out, [F#m] I get out of all your [Bm] boxes I get out, [F#m] you can't hold me in these [Bm] chairs
I get out, [F#m] father free me from this [Em] bondage Knowing my condition [F#m] is the reason I must
[G] change Your stinking [F#m] resolution is no type of [G] solution
Preventing me from [F#m] freedom, maintaining your [G] pollution
I won't support your [F#m] lie no more I won't even try [G] no more
If I have to die, [F#m] oh lord, that's how I choose to [Em] live
I won't be compromised [F#m] no more I can't be [Em] victimized no more
I just don't [F#m] sympathize no more Cause now I [G] understand
You just want to [F#m] use me You say love and [G] abuse me
You never thought you'd [F#m] lose me But how quickly will you [Em] forget
That nothing is for [F#m] certain You thought I'd stay [Em] here hurting
Your guilt trip's just not [F#m] working Repressing me to [G] death
Cause now I'm choosing [F#m] life, yo I'll take the [G] sacrifice, yo
If everything must [F#m] go, then go That's how I choose to [F#] live
[N]
[Em] No more [F#m] compromises I see past your [Em] disguises
Blinded, see through [F#m] my control Stealing my [Em] eternal soul
Appealing through [F#m] material To keep me as your slave
[Bm] But I'll hock it out I'll [F#m] hock it out of all your boxes
[Bm] I'll get out [F#m] You can't hold me in these [Bm] chains
I'll hock it out [F#m] I want out of social [Em] bonding
Knowing my condition [F#m] is the reason I must [G] change
See what you see is what you get And you ain't seen nothing yet
Oh I don't care if you're upset [F#m] I could care less if you're upset
[Dm] [Em] So you don't change the truth [F#m] And your hurt feelings no [Em] excuse
To keep me in this [F#m] box Psychological [Em] locks
Repressing true [F#m] expression Cementing this repression
[Em] Promoting mass deception [F#m] So that no one can be healed
I [G] don't respect your system [F#m] I won't protect your system
[G] When you talk I don't listen [F#m] Only in my fathers will be done
[Bm] And just get out [F#m] Oh just get out of all this [Bm] blindness
Just get out [F#m] Oh you can't hold me in these [Bm] chains
Just get out [F#m] All these traditions killing freedom
[Em] Knowing my condition [F#m] is the reason I must change
[G] I just accepted what you said [F#m] Keeping me among the dead
[G] The only way to [F#m] know Is to walk the learning road
[Em] But faith is not your speed [F#m] Or you'd have everyone believe
[Em] That you're the sole authority [F#m] Just follow the majority
[Em] Afraid to face reality [F#m] The system is a joke
[G] You'd be smart to save your soul [F#m] And escape this mind [G] control
You'd spend your life in [F#m] sacrifice To assist them for the dead
[Em] Are you sure where's the passion in this living?
[F#m] Are you sure it's God you're serving?
[Em] Obligated to a system
[F#m] Getting less than you're deserving [G] Who made up these schools I [F#m] say
Who made up these rules I [G] say Animal [F#m] conditioning
Oh just to keep us as a slave [Bm] Oh just get out
[F#m] Of this social purgatory [Bm] Just get out
[F#m] All these traditions are a lie [Bm] Just get out
[F#m] Superstition killing [Em] freedom Knowing my condition
[F#m] Is the reason I must die
[G] Just [F#m] get out
[G] Just get out
[F#m]
[G] [F#m]
[Em] Knowing my condition
[F#m] Is [F#] the reason I must [Bm] die
Just get out
