I don't think that's too much to ask
I don't think you oughtta be doin' this to yourself, Andy
This is a shitty pipe dreams
Mexico is way down there and you're in here
And that's the way it is
Yeah, right, that's the way it is
It's down there and I'm in here
I guess it comes down to a simple choice really
Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'

Ring in the morn. With sleep I'm reborn
In a bitch of a sitch. I'm rich but feel worn
Look for signs from divine, I pine for peak form
But heaven's messages sent been dense like CBOR
So I get up and shower, sour from all the hours
Devoured by a job that robs my vital power
A coward as a teen. People pleased to extremes
Surrendered dreams to be someone society deems
a success. I confess I possess some mad green
But never rest, under stress, I assess the caffeine
I ingest in excess. It's a mess: a sad scene
With regrets from a quest to impress my dad's queen
She claimed art's a painful strain to fight squalor
I was praised for my brain, named a bright scholar
And though I'm trained in a trade that rakes in my dollars
I'm too based to embrace chain gangs with white collars
Time to escape. I ain't resigned to my cell
Should be painless to break cause I designed it myself
These vapid habits of mind confine and bind me to hell
So I'ma eye the horizon, try to line up a swell
And catch a wave to shore. I'll be makin' sure
I gotta strong foundation 'fore I lay the floor
Cause if we burn out, ain't a way of stayin' warm
So crack the gas can, spray it, and the flames'll roar
Keags

Why do we leave our dreams in cages we create
(Cages we create)
And of ourselves be just a fraction
(Just a fraction)
They'll try to tell you stay inside where you'll be safe
But the comfort they're advisin's a distraction
(It's time to make our prison break)
Ooooohhhhh
(Prison break)
Ooooohhhhh
It's time to make our prison break
(This is a god damn prison break)
They'll try to tell you stay inside where you'll be safe
But the comfort they're advisin's a distraction
(This is a god damn prison...)

I gave up more than pain I had to endure
To be the model of a person that I came to abhor
An empty fragile husk without a meaningful core
A heartless cold machine just trying not to be bored
I couldn't keep up with everything I needed to
(I needed to)
Could show me all I needed was the freedom to
(Not heed unto)
The teachings of the people that would misconstrue
(Hide the truth)
Compliance isn't something to aspire to
I had so many people who believed in me
(But was it me?)
Or was it who they thought that I could someday be
(A fallacy)
Potential's just a word for someone else's dreams
(A fantasy)
To make you to a vessel of propriety
Why can't you just do what you've been asked
Why can't you just stay focused on the task
Just buckle down and get it done. Make it snappy
I burned my life force to make 'em happy
In that moment I discovered that a fire burned within me
I don't care what people think. I will not live to serve society
I'm tearin' at my cage without a morsel of anxiety
I will not let it be and no I won't give in quietly
I'll keep doubling down. I'll keep raising the stakes
I'll keep fightin' to breathe even in the vacuum of space
All the oceans on the planet couldn't make me drown
Cause I'ma keep swimmin' 'til I'm all worn down
To BoneZ

Why do we leave our dreams in cages we create
(Cages we create)
And of ourselves be just a fraction
(Just a fraction)
They'll try to tell you stay inside where you'll be safe
But the comfort they're advisin's a distraction
(It's time to make our prison break)
Ooooohhhhh
(Prison break)
Ooooohhhhh
It's time to make our prison break
(This is a god damn prison break)
They'll try to tell you stay inside where you'll be safe
But the comfort they're advisin's a distraction
(This is a god damn prison...)

Pleased to meet you I'm Keags. Whatchu locked up for
Name's BoneZ. Was thrown in here for not much more
Than the mistake of taking counsel which would rot my core
When they pointed out path I fuckin' walked in the door
Shit, man. My story's kinda the same.
They convinced me I'd fail unless I always obeyed
So I proceeded down the path paved back in the day
Cause I wasn't stubborn enough to double down and create
A solid vision of my future which was fueled by desire
And conviction in your truth so you refuse to retire
Cause if I lose inspiration than my youth'll expire
And if you bend to temptation that's what loses the Shire
You can call me a liar but I found a way out
I'ma guess you kept chippin' through the cripplin' doubt
And the walls are a little bit more brittle when proud
Of the person you've become. Come, I'll show you the route

Why do we leave our dreams in cages we create
(Cages we create)
And of ourselves be just a fraction
(Just a fraction)
They'll try to tell you stay inside where you'll be safe
But the comfort they're advisin's a distraction
(It's time to make our prison break)
Ooooohhhhh
(Prison break)
Ooooohhhhh
It's time to make our prison break
(This is a god damn prison break)
They'll try to tell you stay inside where you'll be safe
But the comfort they're advisin's a distraction
(This is a god damn prison...)
