Make It Out Alive Lyrics
Ah well, he had nothing to lose, it was time to cruise
And he got out of that place
He knew just what to do and made every move
Without leaving a traceHe jumped over the fence and hit the ground
Running as fast as he could without making a sound
His feet were flying through dirt and mud
Each step propelled by a rush of bloodAnd all he wanted to do after all those years inside
Was make it out alive, make it out aliveWell, hes been running away
Ever since the day he dropped out of school
He never did what they told him he should
He just was no good at following rulesBut he learned how to get what he wanted, alright
By using a gun and a switchblade knife
He'd start a fight and kill on a whim
And take your life like it belonged to himAnd he always thought if he ever did get caught
Hed make it out alive, oh make it out aliveOh, when the cops came around, they put him under arrest
But he couldnt care less
He didnt even blink when they threw him against the wall
He didnt think he did anything wrong at allSo they locked him up and they put him away
But he knew that he was gonna escape one day
And so he did and ever since then they tried
But they never saw his face againRight now hes bumming around
In a small town down in Mexico
And every day he tells himself he's free
But he doesn't feel it thoughHe still falls asleep with just one eye closed
Looking over his shoulder wherever he goes
He's got a boat and a house on the beach
But he hasn't lived one day in peaceCause you gotta do much more than just survive
To make it out alive, oh make it out alive
Oh, make it out alive, oh make it out alive
Make it out, make it out, make it out aliveMake it out alive
Make it out alive
Make it out alive
