[Verse 1]
This system's meant to bring to us down
It's brought me down before
But won't do it again
This mission's meant to bring us hope
But we run from it with nowhere to go
You've been running away
You keep running away
You've been running away
[Chorus]
Seems like I'm always at the back door
Trying to find my way out
But I'm not looking anymore
So say my name
And say it loud
I want to hear your voice out loud
[Verse 2]
This system's meant to tear you up
To not see the mess that we've become
This mission's meant to bring us where
Salvation is, please bring us there
You've been running away
You keep running away
You've been running away
[Chorus]
This mission is bringing me hope
While this system will not let me go
Will you not let me go? (Go)
Will you not let me go?
[2x]
This mission is bringing me hope
This system will not let me go
[5x]
Let me go
