I never have the time to do the nothing that I want to do I'm always rushing around being what other people want me to be Well, the fabric of my soul is frayed and falling apart at the seams I'm tied up and tied down by the strings of other people's dreams
I'm starting to see that that isn't me And my freedom isn't free But all I really want is some room to breathe
Someday, I'll learn to say no Find a way to lighten my load People take possession of the pieces of my weary heart I'll learn to let go, whoa-oh And learn to say no
I'm feeling like a lion lying down behind the bars of this cage Yea, the king of the beast is now the king of this enclosed space Wear and tear and worry, they've been drawing their lines on my face Oh yes, I feel a whole lot older than my chronological age, yeah
I'm starting to see that that isn't me And my freedom isn't free Well, all I really want is some room to be me
Someday, I'll learn to say no Find a way to lighten my load People take possession of the pieces of my weary heart I'll learn to let go, whoa-oh And learn to say no Give us your time and give us your money Just lay down your body, there's no sense in running Now cut off your hair and put on a tie Just do what you're told without wondering why
Don't ask for a reason, no matter the season Sit down and comply, 'cause we don't want no free men We'll say what you are, decide what you're not You'll go, and you'll go, and you never will stop
Someday I'll learn to say no Find a way to lighten my load People take possession of the pieces of my weary heart I'll learn to let go, whoa-oh And learn to say-

People take possession of the pieces of my weary heart (People take possession of my heart) (People take possession of my heart) I'll learn to let go, whoa-oh And learn to say no Oh-whoa, learn to say no Oh-whoa, yeah Learn to say noTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
