R&B Ballad
BPM 65
Verse 1/3:
Million RULES at schools
Then when we've left, it's worse
Just when we need a break from them
They're all around, constrain us
The frameworks that we live in are imposed
Routes we pick closed
Doors are slammed on Freedom's toes by RULES
Verse 2/4:
How I hate most RULES!
So I keep breaking them at ev'ry opportunity
Know if I held a survey
Got people to respond real honestly
What I would find would be sev'ral didn't like that....
Chorus:
....RULES keep a stranglehold around their collective throats
RULES...........................................................................................
RULES are stifling
Squeeze the life from us
Ought to do away with most RULES
