Lyrics

I lived so long with chains I couldn't feel 'em Got so used to pain that I was numb I said I don't know how I got here, but I can't build a life here Waiting for my promised land to come So I'll be gone before the morning sun I'm leaving Egypt 'Cause you can't stay a slave and call it freedom I know I gotta go before I find where I'm goin' Set my sail while the wind is blowin' It's time to break away and it's time to mean it I'm leaving Egypt I'm following a cloud there in the distance Trusting that I won't be left alone Might lead me through the struggle, might lead me through the storm But I know one day it's gonna lead me home I'm leaving Egypt 'Cause you can't stay a slave and call it freedom I know I gotta go before I find where I'm goin' Set my sail while the wind is blowin' It's time to break away and it's time to mean it I'm leaving Egypt Open up a new horizon The past is in the past Close up those walls of water till I can't go back Till I can't go back I'm leaving Egypt No one ever said that it'd be easy But the hard road is the one that leads to healing It's why I'm leaving I'm leaving Egypt 'Cause you can't stay a slave and call it freedom I know I gotta go before I find where I'm goin' Set my sail while the wind is blowin' It's time to break away and it's time to mean it Oh, it's time to break away and it's time to mean it I'm leaving Egypt I'm leaving Egypt
