Breakout Lyrics

Ain't got no money but I don't give a damn
'Cos when I get it I spend it fast as I can
Ain't got no worries, at least none I can see
Gotta make a fast connection then I'll be free
I gotta

(Chorus:)
Break out and leave this life behind
Break out and see what I can find
Might lose I'm gonna try my luck
Might win don't really give a fuck

And I gotta try 'cos I gotta know
If I am the winner or the star of the show
Can't stand routine for another day
Rules and regulations getting in my way
I gotta
(Chorus)

And I won't let anyone put me down
I ain't gonna be nobody's clown
I won't be taken in by their promises, no
I'm gonna try on my terms this time

So if I can do it you can do it too
Why don't you try it you've got nothing to lose
A boring job living from day to day
Do something different try to break away
