I left the city for another life   To start it all again   All I wanted was the solitude   And time to think alone      Peace and quiet seemed the only way   But I guess that I was wrong   Now I stand with gun in hand   I should have known it all along      I don't need to know what's right   Now I know I have to fight      Lust for freedom   Taking it all the way   Lust for freedom   Somebody's got to pay      Lust for freedom   The future is in my hand   Lust for freedom   Everyone take a stand      Lust for freedom      I'm imprisoned, shut out from life   But I know it won't be long   There ain't no way they can keep me in   I will show them that they're wrong      The lust for freedom will see me through   Until I break the chain   You will never get a second chance   You won't mess with me again      I don't need to know what's right   Now I know I have to fight      Lust for freedom   Taking it all the way   Lust for freedom   Somebody's got to pay      Lust for freedom   The future is in my hand   Lust for freedom   Everyone take a stand      I've had enough, ain't taking no more   The time has come to break the law   If I give in I'll never get out   So I must stand, I'm breaking out      I don't need to know what's right   Now I know I have to fight      Lust for freedom   Taking it all the way   Lust for freedom   Somebody's got to pay      Lust for freedom   The future is in my hand   Lust for freedom   Everyone take a stand      Lust for freedom
