The City Where Music Rings


I've had enough

I've done my time

I want to escape 

Escape to where music rings


Mother, I can't take it anymore 

My real passion is with the lyrics 

The lyrics I write 

Music, the passion I believe in

I want to go to the city 

The city where music rings


Call me fool

Call me stupid

But I just can't handle the stress anymore 

The pressure I feel

I've never told you about


I'm done with it all

I want to follow my dreams

The dreams of music 

The dreams of lyrics 

The dream of songwriting 


And this is my way 

Of telling you 

I'm tired of living 

In a cave of secrets

I've had enough of this dark place


I want to quit

Follow the road

To where the music rings 

Music city

I want to escape 

Escape to the city where the music rings 


I just can't live like this

Being someone I'm not

Let me be free

Free from this prison

Where my mind feels trapped 


What creativity can I make,

If I'm stuck at a dead end job?

The passion of flames

The beauty of a rose


This is who I am

A writer of song

Not some guy 

Cleaning a fast food joint

I'm a writer of the lyrical kind


I feel defeat 

From something forced

I just can't handle it anymore 

Mother, I'm sorry

But I want to live my dream 

Live my passion 


I want to go where the city where music rings 

I want to write lyrics for the world

I want to write and write and write

Feel freedom of who I want to be


The hints were there

How could you not see? 

This is who I really am

A man with a creative mind


I feel like

A bird in a cage 

When I'm at work

This isn't the path I want to take

Let me be free


I want to see my dreams come true 

I want to see my dreams come true

I want to see my dreams come true

I want to see my dreams come true


Let me be 

A lyrical writer

Let me be

A writer of song

Let me be

Me

A songwriter

A songwriter in the city where music rings
