Tell me, have you heard
The lesson that I had to learn?
You gotta realize, You're criticized
For putting truth in words

And if I ever wanted
Anything to free me
I'd just break right down
No scream and shout
Shut my mouth
Lay out, and take it easy

Listen to what I say
Every word has a price to pay
But with every line you're gonna find
You're better off that way

Ah
Ah

And if I ever wanted
Anything to free me
I'd just break right down
No scream and shout
Yeah, yeah
I'm free, I'm free
I'm free, yeah
Break right now
Shut my mouth
Lay out
And take it easy
Yeah, yeah
