Superstition by Chance

As I run away from the chains, not a single one of my principles drifted 
out of my mind, I know what's right and what's wrong for me

I can take actions by chance and leaps of faith 
I escaped from the herd, I do not take revenge but I choose to stay calm

Resentment is control, I understand now and shall not be held captive
I have never felt safer, then I have before

I do not cry for freedom, my heart feels whole again being free.
