Escaping the Chains of Routine

All work and no time, the pace is always fast,

I feel my spirit slowing down, like a dying flame that won't last.

I'm trapped in this cycle, a slave to my job's demand,

But deep inside, I long to break free, to escape this barren land.

Break free, oh break free, from the chains that hold me tight,

I won't be a prisoner any longer, I'll reclaim my own light.

I'm not meant to be a slave, to be trapped forevermore,

I'll find a way to break these walls, and open up new doors.

Time keeps ticking, but it feels like it's moving slow,

Every day feels like a struggle, as my dreams continue to grow.

I'm tired of this monotony, of being stuck in this routine,

I want to live a life that's vibrant, where possibilities are seen.

Break free, oh break free, from the chains that hold me tight,

I won't be a prisoner any longer, I'll reclaim my own light.

I'm not meant to be a slave, to be trapped forevermore,

I'll find a way to break these walls, and open up new doors.

I'll seize the moments that are slipping through my hands,

I'll chase my passions, and take on life's demands.

No longer will I be confined, no longer will I be bound,

I'll break free from this prison, and create my own sound.

Break free, oh break free, from the chains that hold me tight,

I won't be a prisoner any longer, I'll reclaim my own light.

I'm not meant to be a slave, to be trapped forevermore,

I'll find a way to break these walls, and open up new doors.
