You halt my stride with silent rules Striped lines stretch across the street You twist the brave into your fools This checkered cage beneath my feet Why you stop me there? Who put you in charge? Not your chains can hold me I walk my way free Your ruby eye begins to burn Seconds drip like thickened glue Orders shouted: wait your turn Borrowed power, fake bright hue Why you stop me there? Who put you in charge? Not your chains can hold me I walk my way free In one blink I shift my weight Chin up high, I claim my lane Tip the balance, challenge fate Step beyond your fragile reign Why you stop me there? Who put you in charge? Red won’t block my pathway Green lights blaze my steps
