I am the wilderness locked in a cage
I am a growin' force you kept in place
I am a tree reachin' for the sun
Please don't hold me down
Please don't hold me down
I am a rollin' wave without the motion
A glass of water longin' for the ocean
I am an asphalt flower breakin' free but you keep stoppin' me
Release me
Release me
I am the rain that's comin' down on you
That you shielded yourself from with a roof
I have the fire burnin' desperately but you're controllin' me
Release me
Release me
