I Get Out
Lauryn Hill

[Singing Chorus]

I get out, I get out of all your boxes

I get out, you can't hold me in these chains

I'll get out

Father free me from this bondage

Knowin' my condition

Is the reason I must change


[Verse 1]

Your stinkin' resolution

Is no type of solution

Preventin' me from freedom

Maintainin' your polution

I won't support your lie no more

I won't even try no more

If I have to die, oh Lord

That's how I choose to live

I won't be compromised no more

I can't be victimised no more

I just don't sympathize no more

Cuz now I understand

You just wanna use me

You say love then abuse me

You never thought you'd loose me

But how quickly we forget

That nothin' is for certain

You thought I'd stay here hurtin'

Your guilt trip's just not workin'

Repressin' me to death

Cuz now I'm choosin' life, yo

I take the sacrifice, yo

If everything must go, then go

That's how I choose to live


[Pause]


[Singing rest of Verse 1]

That's how I choose to live...

Hehehehe, awhh

No more compromises

I see past your diguises

Blindin' through mind control

Stealin' my eternal soul

Appealin' through material

To keep me as your slave


[Singing Chorus]

But I get out

Oh, I get out of all your boxes

I get out

Oh, you can't hold me in these chains

I'll get out

Oh, I want out of social bondage

Knowin' my condition

Oh, is the reason I must change


[Singing Verse 2]

See, what you see is what you get

Oh, and you ain't seen nothin' yet

Oh, I don't care if you're upset

I could care less if you're upset

See it don't change the truth

And your hurt feeling's no excuse

To keep me in this box

Psychological locks

Repressin' true expression

Cementin' this repression

Promotin' mass deception

So that no one can be healed

I don't respect your system

I won't protect your system

When you talk I don't listen

Oh, let my Father's will be done


[Singing Chorus]

And just get out

Oh, just get out of all these bondage

Just get out

Oh, you can't hold me in these chains

Just get out

All these traditions killin' freedom

Knowin' my condition

Is the reason I must change


[Singing Verse 3]

I've just accepted what you said

Keepin' me among the dead

The only way to know

Is to walk then learn and grow

But faith is not your speed

Oh, you've had everyone believed

That you're the sole authority

Just follow the majority

Afraid to face reality

The system is a joke

Oh, you'd be smart to save your soul

Oh, and escape this mind control

You spent your life in sacrifice

To a system for the dead

Oh, are you sure...

Where is the passion in this living

Are you sure it's God you servin'

Obligated to a system

Getting less then you're deserving

Who made up these schools, I say

Who made up these rules, I say

Animal conditioning

Oh, just to keep us as a slave


[Singing Chorus]

Oh, just get out

Of this social (?)-----> PURGATORY

Just get out

All these traditions are alive

Just get out

Superstition killing freedom

Knowin' my condition

Is the reason I must die

Just get out

Just get out

Just get out

Let's get out

Let's get out

Knowin' my condition

Is the reason I must die

Just get out
