Turn off the screen, unplug the feed They’re selling us fear, they’re planting the weed The suits in the city, they lie through their teeth While the working man’s crushed by the boots underneath They poison the water, they poison the food They want us dependent, they want us subdued But the veil has been lifted, the illusion is cracked I’m packing my gear and I ain’t looking back. [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, I found the exit, I found the door I ain’t playing their rigged little game anymore! [Chorus] Give me ten good acres and a barbed wire fence! I’m taking my freedom right out of their hands! You can keep your corruption, your concrete and steel I’m growing my own, yeah, I’m keeping it real! Let the system collapse, let the matrix just melt The ultimate rebellion is a man who can feed himself! Yeah! Feed himself! [Verse 2] Got a wood stove burning, got seeds in the dirt This is the only real currency left on the earth Got water from the well and the sun on the roof Out here in the wild, man, I’m living the proof They want us in debt, keep us trapped in the maze Working for paper till the end of our days But a sovereign mind is a dangerous thing I’m cutting the puppet from the master’s string! [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, I found the exit, I found the door I ain’t playing their rigged little game anymore! [Chorus] Give me ten good acres and a barbed wire fence! I’m taking my freedom right out of their hands! You can keep your corruption, your concrete and steel I’m growing my own, yeah, I’m keeping it real! Let the system collapse, let the matrix just melt The ultimate rebellion is a man who can feed himself! [Bridge] (Heavy, rhythmic clapping and stomping builds up) Awake and alive, out here in the pines! Reading the seasons, reading the signs! They can’t shut me down, they can’t turn off my light! I’m holding my ground and I’m ready to fight! [Guitar Solo] (High energy, gritty, distorted swamp-rock guitar solo) [Chorus] Give me ten good acres and a barbed wire fence! I’m taking my freedom right out of their hands! You can keep your corruption, your concrete and steel I’m growing my own, yeah, I’m keeping it real! Let the system collapse, let the matrix just melt The ultimate rebellion is a man who can feed himself! [Outro] I’m off the grid. I’m wide awake. You can’t control a free man. (Heavy drum hit to end)
