Lyrics Skillet – Breaking Free
Text:
John Cooper:
This night, nothing like any other night, can’t take anymore
You say I’ll never be nothing, cause us suffering, something to ignore
These things you say
No way, I am stronger than before
John Cooper (Jen Ledger):
I will break, breaking free, coming alive
I broke these chains, never be afraid to live my life (never be afraid to live my life)
Break, breaking free, one last time
No matter what they say, I will never change
And I know I can break (break) break (break)
Look out, I’m breaking free
Lacey Sturm, & Jen Ledger (Both):
This is who I am
You don’t understand, (you never even try) to swim
I think you’re listening
Drop defence, (you stab and twist the knife)
John Cooper, Lacey Sturm and Jen Ledger (All):
These things (these things) you say (you say)
They don’t hold me, (I’m not your slave)
No way, (I’m stronger than before)
John Cooper, Jen Ledger (Both):
I will break, breaking free, coming alive
I broke these chains, never be afraid to live my life (never be afraid to live my life)
Break, breaking free, one last time
No matter what they say, I will never change
And I know I can break (break) break (break)
Look out, I’m breaking free
John Cooper:
No fear can hold me down
I know I can rise above it
Overcome, chains undone
No fear can hold me down
I know I can rise above it
John Cooper and Jen Ledger:
I will break, breaking free, coming alive
I broke these chains, never be afraid to live my life (never be afraid to live my life)
Break, breaking free, one last time
No matter what they say, I will never change
John Cooper and Lacey Sturm:
And I know I can break (break) break (break)
I will break (I will break)
Look out, I’m breaking free
I’m breaking free (breaking breaking, this is freedom, this is freedom)
I am breaking free
