[Verse 1]
I just can't take it anymore
Your tricks have fooled me for the last time
You know I've had it up to here
With the way you bring me down, down
You're wreaking havoc on my world
You're calling question to my sanity
But I'm not gonna let you get the best of me
Not anymore, anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
So here I go, watch me run
A million miles under the sun
That's what I'll do if that's what it takes
To get away

[Chorus]
I gotta get away
I gotta get away
I gotta get away
I gotta get away

[Verse 2]
You try to steal away our kids
You try to tear apart our families
You bring your lies into our town
And watch our morals tumble down
We are a city on the edge
We are a world that needs a remedy
But we're still the nation under God
And it's time we take a stand
[Chorus]
Gotta get away
We gotta get away
We gotta get away
We gotta get away
We gotta get away
We gotta get away
Oh, we gotta get away
We gotta get away
No, we can't stay

[Bridge]
Give us Your strength to run from evil
Lord, lead the way
Lead us into a better day
Give us hope
Give us faith
Help us, oh Lord, to get away
Hear our cry, every day
Help us, oh Lord, to get away

[Pre-Chorus]
Here I go
Watch me run
A million miles under the sun
That's what I'll do
If that's what it takes
To get away
[Chorus]
We gotta get away (Give us hope)
We gotta get away (Give us strength)
We gotta get away (Help us, Lord)
We gotta get away (Oh)
We gotta get away (Give us hope)
We gotta get away (Help us, Lord)
We gotta get away (Hear our cry)
We gotta get away (Help us, Lord)
Oh, we gotta get away (Help me, Lord)
We gotta get away (From the dark)
We gotta turn away (Hear our cry)

[Outro]
Every day, help us, Lord
We gotta get away
