Autonomy (Slave) Lyrics by Samm Henshaw

The Sound Experiment

2015

[Verse 1]
Need laws of my own
No foreign guidance to direct me
This place is my home
Built here to protect me
So tell me why I'm running back to your authority
You move my mind from the weakest part of me
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't need nothing more
Than the time of day
With the freedom to fall
And falling straight
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be a slave
I don't wanna be a slave
A slave to what we've done
I don't wanna be a slave
To save
No, I don't wanna be a slave
[Verse 2]
No matter what we've been told
Gotta keep moving on
We'll keep making the moat
Til the boundary's gone
So tell me why our voices cannot be heard
And who decides just what we've left to learn
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't need nothing more
Than the time of day
With the freedom to fall
And falling straight
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be a slave
I don't wanna be a slave
A slave to what we've done
I don't wanna be a slave
To save
No, I don't wanna be a slave
[Bridge]
And who are we to say that this is a way to go
And every freedom makes a choice to take control
And who are we to say that this is a way to go
When every freedom makes a choice to take control
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be a slave, no no
I don't wanna be a slave
A slave to what we've done
I don't wanna be a slave
To save
No, I don't wanna be a slave
