G            C              G
 I am the wilderness locked in a cage
 G       C                  G
I am a growing force you kept in place
G        Am           C
I am a tree reaching for the sun
 D                      G    Am    C
Please don’t hold me down
D
Please don’t hold me down

G        C                G 
 I am a rolling wayve without the motion
G           C             G
A glass of water longing for the ocean
G       Am                C           
I am an asphalt flower breaking free 
     D                   G 
But you keep stopping me
     Am     C  D     G
Release me
G       Am   C   D
  Release me

G  Am  C  D

G          C                G
 I am the rain that's coming down on you
G          C                    G
That you shielded yourself from with a roof 
       Am                   C
I am a fire burning desperately 
     D                    G
but you're controlling me
G       Am   C  D  G
 Release me
G       Am   C  D  G
 Release me
