Goin' Away

I ain't just tired, I'm exhausted
My life is a disaster
Yes, I've heard what you just said
But I can't move any faster
Legs and arms don't respond
The yells keep getting louder
But my body don't obey me
Seems I'm not longer its master
I once knew the taste of freedom
Haven't always been a slave
But I got captured for no reason
And as a prisoner remain
Now I can't choose what to believe in
They took away my name
Gotta work until I pass out
Every damn day is the same
I'm trying not to lose hope
And striving to survive
But don't know how to keep on it
Without losing my mind
Keepin' it real ain't easy
And it's harder every time
I am barely on my feet
I don't know how I'm still alive
How I've endured the beat ups
The whips for falling down
Feels like carrying on my shoulders
More than seven hundred pounds
Since I got in to this place
The death is all around
I cannot swim these waters
I feel I slowly drown

I'm going away
And I'm leaving today
I'm going away
And I'm leaving today

Yeah, I'm going away
And find my liberation
But it's all in my head
Is my imagination
I'm really still in this hell
So I gotta be patient
And wait for the moment
When I go back to my nation
Got no choice but to believe
Save strength and pray
For this nightmare to be over
I really hope someday
Rather sooner than later
I can find the way
To get rid of the burden
Of these big heavy chains
That keeps me trapped
Far away from home
Is like the uncomplete story
Of the prodigal son
Who only left for a while
But could never return
Now I only wish
I would never had gone
And didn't end up like this
Alone with no defender
Please remind me who I am
Cause I can't remember
Don't even know what day it is
Lost count in September
And since then there have been moments
I almost surrendered
But the dream never dies
It pushes me to carry on
I'm a soldier of freedom
I will fight till' I'm done because

I'm going away
And I'm leaving today
I'm going away
And I'm leaving today

At last and
After all this years
Skinny, long haired
With a castaway beard
I can smile
Wet my eyes with joyful tears
Cause I have the possibility
To escape from here
I have broken the bars
And with a jump got out
Enter the highway
Now I'm heading south
To a better future
I'm a new man now
A reason to celebrate
I wanna scream out loud
Break the silence of the night
Wanna let them all know
That has ended an age
It's a new tomorrow
Leave behind the pain
Get away of the sorrow
Rising out of the dark
To the light I'll follow

To the lights
I will follow

I'm going away
And I'm leaving today
I'm going away
And I'm leaving today
I'm going away
And I'm leaving today
I'm going away
And I'm leaving today
