Paroles
[Verse 1]
(Darkchild) Xscape
Xscape
Xscape
[Verse 2]
Everywhere I turn, no matter where I look
The system's in control, it's all ran by the book
I've got to get away so I can free my mind
Xscape is what I need, from the electric eyes
[Verse 3]
No matter where I am, I see my face around
They pin lies on my name, and push them town to town
Don't have a place to run, but there's no need to hide
I've got to find a place, but I won't hide away
[Verse 4]
Xscape, got to get away from the system loose in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships had to go away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna 'cause I gotta face nobody but me
Xscape
[Verse 5]
I tried to share my life with someone I could love
But games and money is all she ever thought of
How could that be my fault when she gambled and lost?
I'm tired of silly games, it's time to make a change
[Verse 6]
Why is it I can't do whatever I want to? (Oh)
When it's my personal life and I don't live for you (You)
So don't you try to tell me what is right for me
You be concerned about you, I can do what I want to
[Verse 7]
Xscape, got to get away from the system loose in the world today (I got to, I got to get away)
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships had to go away (Don't you know I need it)
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man (I got to get away)
Xscape, I do what I wanna 'cause I gotta face nobody but me
[Verse 8]
Xscape, got to get away from the system loose in the world today (Get away, don't you try it)
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships had to go away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna 'cause I gotta face nobody but me
Xscape
[Verse 9]
When I go
This problem world won't bother me no more (Yeah)
[Verse 10]
Xscape, got to get away from the system loose in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships had to go away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna 'cause I gotta face nobody but me
[Verse 11]
Xscape, got to get away from the system loose in the world today
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships had to go away
Xscape, the man with the pen that writes the lies that hassle this man
Xscape, I do what I wanna 'cause I gotta face nobody but me
Xscape, I got to get away
[Verse 12]
Xscape, the pressure that I face from relationships had to go away
Xscape, the man with the pen
(I can't take this garbage heap no more)
Xscape, I do what what I wanna 'cause I gotta face nobody but me
Xscape
[Verse 13]
Xscape
