In the depths and throws of emotion
The first verse to a track that I've been working on . . .

Nobody's free, we're all trapped in a cage
I can't see, completely blinded by rage
Engulfed by society, power and lies
Devil's on the sides of me, friends in disguise
Doubting myself, I can't take all this pressure
So I turn my paycheck into chemical pleasure
I haven't connected with anybody for years
But if my feelings are shut down then what's with all the tears
I live in fear of the world surrounding me
Everyday life is like a bully just pounding me
Bound to be a better existence than this
But my mind just doesn't comprehend the meaning of bliss
Missed something along the way, I gotta be wrong
There's gotta be someplace where even I can belong
Ease the pain, bring a smile to my face
Anything, please just help me out of this place

(Chorus)

Escape to another place
the only way
cause at this pace I don't think I can face another day
Escape to another place
gotta get away
can't face another day it's the only way


. . . still working on the other verses, this is just a start.

Devils on the sides of me, friends in disguise
Doubting myself, I can't take all this pressure
so I turn my paycheck into chemical pleasure
I haven't connected with anybody in years
but if my feelings are shut down then what's with all the tears?
I live in fear of the world surroundin me
Everyday life is like a bully just poundin me
Bound to be a better existence than this
but my mind just doesn't comprehend the meaning of bliss
Missed something along the way, I gotta be wrong
There's gotta be someplace where even I can belong
Ease the pain, bring a smile to my face
Anything, please, just belp me get out of this place

Chorus
Escape to another place
the only way
cause at this pace
I don't think I can face another day
Escape to another place
gotta get away
can't face another day, it's the only way

Exit plan--it's on my mind daily
but this man--is still makin the minimum
I got rhymes--but nobody wants to play me
It takes time--recording studios I'm rentin em

It never ends, all the drama in my life
and then I wonder why my wrists are always lookin for a knife
My good sense says no, but my spirit says yes
cause its broke from trying to devide and conquer all this stress
I have dreams of just catchin a bus
of friends anywhere but here sayin "come crash with us,"
But then I wake up in the same fuckin bed
surrounded by all the magazines and books I haven't read
turn on the tv, orange terrorist threat
heightened state of alert and I ain't even dressed yet
Ridge is talking tellin me what to avoid
and then I wonder why my therapist thinks I'm paranoid
Wearin gloves and a mask to go and get the mail
and then back in the house I'm cuttin my own white powder rails
Ashcroft trying to steal my freedom to shout
I don't know how, but yo, I gotta get out

Chorus

Escape to another place (echoanother place . . .)
can't face another day (echoanother day . . . )
Escape to another place (echoanother place . . .)
Gotta get away (echogotta get away . . .) (this last line repeated four times as the track fades out . . . )

How do you tell someone who's passed away that life's not that bad? :(
