Breakaway (From Those Chains) Lyrics

My Aunt Jessie was cruel
Lord, she made me go to school all the time
It was killing me, it was a crime
'Cause I could not be free from the confines of those chainsOh, the river was deep but the water looked sweet
Oh, my, my, my I jumped right in
You know I tried but I could not swim
Through the darkness or the painNever thought I'd breakaway from those chains
Never thought Id' breakaway from those chains
Never thought Id' breakaway from those chains
Never thought Id' breakaway from those chainsSo I headed for the hills
Let the danger break my will
Oh my, my, in a landslide, I was losing ground
And there was no one but myself to blameNever thought Id' breakaway from those chains
Never thought Id' breakaway from those chains
Never thought Id' breakaway from those chains
No, no, no, I'd breakaway from those chainsBreakaway from those chains
Breakaway from those chains
Breakaway from those chains

Breakaway from those chains
Breakaway from those chains
Breakaway from those chains
