Release me, defeat is me Rid me from the filth that I used to be Shed my skin, I'm born again Rise from the ashes onto new lands Where the soil is rich and the air is clean It's been so many years since I got to breathe But these chains are mine and now I set me free Rid me from the filth that I used to be True to me Been a noose to you Dead weight, of no use to you Been a noose to you Need to be something new to you Mama's boy grew a little older Bad taste in my mouth And a chip on my shoulder No more damn reason to try and safe face Lived every vice and every fucking mistake So Release me, defeat is me Rid me from the filth that I used to be Shed my skin, I'm born again Rise from the ashes onto new lands Where the soil is rich and the air is clean It's been so many years since I got to breathe But these chains are mine and now I set me free Rid me from the filth that I used to be True to me Been a noose to you Dead weight, of no use to you Been a noose to you Need to be something new to you
