Get Away
Maywood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
I gotta get away
(x4)
You try to steal away our kids
You try to tear apart our families
You bring lies into our towns
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 a nation under God
And it's time we take a stand
We gotta get away (x8)
No, we can't stay
Give us your strength to run from evil
Lord, lead the way
Lead us to into a better day
Give us hope
Give us faith
Help us, oh Lord, to get away
Hear our cry everyday
Help us, oh Lord, to get away
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
Gotta get away
(give us hope)
Gotta get away
(give us strength)
Gotta get away
(help us Lord)
Gotta get away
(Oooh)
Gotta get away
(give us hope)
Gotta get away
(give us strength)
Gotta get away
(help us Lord)
Gotta get away
(to get away)
Gotta get away
(hear our cry)
Gotta get away
(everyday)
Gotta get away
(help us Lord)
Gotta get away
(Oooh)
Gotta get away
(valley high)
Gotta get away
(mounatin low)
Gotta get away
(from the dark)
Gotta get away
(to the light)
Hear our cry
Everyday
Gotta get away
The lyrics of Maywood's song "Get Away" express the singer's desire to escape from a negative and harmful situation. The lines "I just can't take it anymore, your tricks have fooled me for the last time" suggests that the singer has been deceived or deceived repeatedly and is fed up. The lyrics use powerful imagery to evoke a sense of desperation, like the line "calling question to my sanity," which suggests that the situation has become so difficult, it may be affecting the singer's mental health. The chorus "gotta get away" is repeated several times to emphasize the sense of urgency and the need to escape. The bridge of the song shifts to a plea for divine intervention, with the singer asking God for strength and guidance to lead them to a better situation. In the end, the message of the song is clear- sometimes the best course of action is to remove oneself from a toxic situation, and finding hope and faith can help guide the way.
