Lyrics

Inmate 254, just another number on C Block 6 A.M. tray's on the floor, feeding me bologna and sheetrock Counting down them days till the sun shines on my face Break away Got an old lady who lays me down crazy She'll be waiting in the parking lot A few more days on good behavior Gonna give her everything I got Countin' down the days till the sun shines on my face I break away I'm busting out this coffin and I'm breaking out the chains Can't hold me down for nothing They can't keep me in a cage Break away I'll break away Celly hit the buzzer, took off my number And they gave me back my boots Stepped outside looking for my ride No sign of a you-know-who Changed the locks on the single wide That ain't my truck outside I'll break away I'm busting out this coffin and I'm breaking out the chains Can't hold me down for nothing They can't keep me in a cage I'll break away I'll break away I'd go home to mama but she don't want the drama And I really don't blame her much Just a lifer on the road, going where it goes Don't know where it's ending up Only thing I know is true, all I was born to do is to break away I'll break away, I'll break away I'll break away, I'll break away I'll break away, I'll break away I'll break away
