Independence Lyrics

Patient, Anticipation
Up till now I�ve been hurry up and waiting
At a bus stop, in Independence
Licking an ice cream cone
I�ve been kicking
I�ve been scheming
But this is as close as I�ve ever been to leaving
5 blocks away, a stones throw from home
But I�m as good as gone

I gotta get gone, gone, gone
Shooting like a gun, a gun, a gun
Skipping like a stone, stone, stone
Far as I can run
To where, freedom is free
There�s a road like a long grey ribbon far as I can see
And it�s pulling Independence out of me

Emancipation and paper chasin�
Leaving with question marks and mamas blessing
Put her picture in my pocket
Long with her rosary
Some say I�m crazy, a little loco
And most of my friends will live a die in this zip code
It might be for me, but until I go
How am I ever supposed to know

I gotta get gone, gone, gone
Shooting like a gun, a gun, a gun
Skipping like a stone, stone, stone
Far as I can run
To where, freedom is free
There�s a road like a long grey ribbon far as I can see

I�m bustin� out of Independence
Independence bustin� out of me
I�m bustin� out of Independence
Independence bustin� out of me
I gotta get gone, gone, gone
Shooting like a gun, a gun, a gun
Skipping like a stone, stone, stone
Far as I can run
To where, freedom is free
There�s a road like a long grey ribbon far as I can see
There�s a road like a long grey ribbon far as I can see
And it�s pulling Independence out of me
