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
