Be Free Lyrics by Papa Roach

Live and Murderous in Chicago

2004

[Verse 1]
Woke up and I feel like shit
I don't remember last night, I'm getting sick of this
I hit the bottle when I got off stage
And got piss drunk stupid and I went in a rage
I think I mighta got in a fight
Because my knuckles were bloody and I don't feel alright
I hit the bottom and I don't even care
You say I'm going to hell but I am already there

[Pre-Chorus]
Sick and tired of being sick and tired

[Chorus]
I wanna be free from this ball and chain and
Be free from this life of pain and
Be free from this ball and chain
I wanna be free from you

[Verse 2]
Now I'm full of guilt and shame
I can't point a finger 'cause there's no one to blame
So I say I'll never do it again
But when the sun goes down, you are my only friend
I'm thinking I am starting to see
I have become everything I never wanted to be
I'm really getting sick of myself
'Cause when I look into the mirror, I see somebody else

[Pre-Chorus]
Sick and tired of being sick and tired

[Chorus]
I wanna be free from this ball and chain and
Be free from this life of pain and
Be free from this ball and chain
I wanna be free from you
I wanna be free from this ball and chain and
Be free from this life of pain and
Be free from this ball and chain
I wanna be free from you

[Refrain]
Sick and tired of being sick and tired
So sick and tired of being sick and tired
Sick and tired of being sick and tired
So sick and tired of being sick and tired

[Outro]
I wanna be free from this ball and chain and
Be free from this life of pain and
Be free from this ball and chain
I wanna be free from you
I wanna be free from this ball and chain and
Be free from this life of pain and
Be free from this ball and chain
I wanna be free from you
I wanna be free from you
