I left the city for another life
To start it all again
All I wanted was the solitude
And time to think alone
Peace and quiet seemed the only way
But I guess that I was wrong
Now I stand with gun in hand
I should have known it all along
I don't need to know what's right
Now I know I have to fight
Lust for freedom
Taking it all the way
Lust for freedom
Somebody's got to pay
Lust for freedom
The future is in my hand
Lust for freedom
Everyone take a stand
Lust for freedom
I'm imprisoned, shut out from life
But I know it won't be long
There ain't no way they can keep me in
I will show them that they're wrong
The lust for freedom will see me through
Until I break the chain
You will never get a second chance
You won't mess with me again
I don't need to know what's right
Now I know I have to fight
Lust for freedom
Taking it all the way
Lust for freedom
Somebody's got to pay
Lust for freedom
The future is in my hand
Lust for freedom
Everyone take a stand
I've had enough, ain't taking no more
The time has come to break the law
If I give in I'll never get out
So I must stand, I'm breaking out
I don't need to know what's right
Now I know I have to fight
Lust for freedom
Taking it all the way
Lust for freedom
Somebody's got to pay
Lust for freedom
The future is in my hand
Lust for freedom
Everyone take a stand
Lust for freedom
