Need To Be Free

Woke up this morning, glanced outside my bedroom window. I could see 
my life so clearly in this place, I'm not supposed to be. 
I can see the light now. Kind of dim, really ain't that bright now,
I need to get away right now. 
If I wanna survive, doing' it now is the right time! I gotta try to save me.
Anything I gotta do, I gotta do it to protect my soul
people out for themselves I'm feeling like it's time that I let them go
The times are changing. Now my mind realize all this evil won't let me grow
I can really see it. I really believe it, but will I break free? 
I don't know. I can see it clear now, I dont know, just let God and let it go............
