CHAINS Lyrics by OneDayRoman

2018

(Chorus)
I put these chains on my soul
I put these chains on my soul
My future is what I stole
With these chains
I’ve got to let them go
I've got to let them go

(Verse 1)
All I wanna do is entertain the people, is that too much
But I’ve got old friends telling me that I’m not good enough
Do I believe it, that’s what they said, it’s in my head, it’s in my head, it’s in my head
Can I even do this, will you even like it
What they say is killing me and I can’t even fight it
I’ve held myself back, thinking that I might quit
Put these chains on my ability, and man I don’t like it

Just leave me alone
I can’t figure out how to help myself
My confidence is gone
No, I don’t want any help
Should I stay or should I go
Should I take all my dreams
Should I take my dreams and let them float.. away
Is the grass really green
Would it even grow
Or is today the day
I just leave it all alone
Everything is gone
Leave it all alone
Give up on all my songs
Just. Leave it alone

(Chorus)
I put these chains on my soul
I put these chains on my soul
My future is what I stole
With these chains and
I’ve got to let them go
I've got to let them go

(Intermission)
Um excuse me sir
Um i don't think you should move on with this music stuff because
I Honestly don't think you're good enough
The things that you're telling me that you want to do with your life and your music career
I just don't see it happening personally
So, you should just
You know go to school
Try to get a nice job
Have a normal life
Just, just forget about music y'know
Are you listening sir?
Hello? Hello?

(Verse 2)
There’s no more telling me no
I don’t care, you can’t touch the flow
Mind right, look how hard I’ll go
Music till I die, just call me Ro
I can’t explain how I’m feeling
Look how far I go
But I don’t see a ceiling
Look how far I’ll grow
I’m looking out into space
See this look on my face
This is my mind healing
And my dreams are my saving grace
I’m so thankful for this feeling
I’m flying on cloud 9
And music is what I’m dealing
There’s just no time
I got to stay in my lane
I released myself from the chains
Now it’s time for the change
I’m Here. One Day

(Outro)
I took these chains off my soul
I took these chains off my soul
I feel so free
Took these chains off
Now it’s time to go

They always told me I had dreams way too big for this planet
So I would always dream out of this world
And I just know they couldn't stand it
But now the chains are off it's go time
We gonna win that grammy some day
Wait. We gone win it one day
Ha, see ya later
