The only wrong I did was right for me.
Why should I be captive when I could be free?
I’m not going to get caught up in your games,
go ahead and act tough, throw your punches and call me names.

The things you said can’t be forgiven.
I’m not going to sit here and take this beating.
I've got a good head on these shoulders
and I’m not letting you weigh me down with these boulders.

I’m flying away, I’m not looking back.
My life isn’t something for you to hijack.
No matter how hard you try,
I’m in control and this is goodbye.
