Breakaway
Ronald-V T-Nikko Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh yeah
Oh yeah

I can't find another minute for myself
Too busy pleasing someone else today
I've lost my way

There's gotta be a way of finding my way back
Just have to take a different tact
To where I'm at

And the only thing
I really learned
Is how to break my fall
And before I get
My fingers burned
Before I lose it all
I've got to

Breakaway, breakaway
No I can't hesitate
Oh release yourself
Down to earth
Breakaway, breakaway
No I can't hesitate
Oh release yourself
Second birth

It's really hard to find the dream confusion raised
I hit my head against the wall again
But it's not in vain

There has to be a better reason why I'm here
Before I start to disappear
I gotta get out of here

And the only thing
I really learned
Is how to break my fall
And before I get
My fingers burned
Before I lose it all
I've got to

Breakaway, breakaway
No I can't hesitate
Oh release yourself
Down to earth
Breakaway, breakaway
No I can't hesitate
Oh release yourself
Second birth

I, I don't wanna be here
I, I don't have to be here
I said I, I don't wanna be here
Cos it's time to move on to get back to the place I belong

And the only thing
I really learned
Is how to break my fall
And before I get
My fingers burned
Before I lose it all, yeah
I've got to

Breakaway, breakaway
No I can't hesitate
Oh release yourself
Down to earth
Breakaway, breakaway
No I can't hesitate
Oh release yourself
Second birth

Breakaway, break away
And the only thing
Breakaway, breakaway
I really learned
Breakaway, breakaway
Is how to break my fall
Breakaway, breakaway
And before I get
Breakaway, breakaway
My fingers burned
Breakaway, breakaway
Before I lose it all
Breakaway, breakaway




I've got to
Breakaway, breakaway

The opening lines of the song set the tone for the message, as the singer laments how he has "no time" for himself, and is too busy trying to make others happy. He acknowledges that he has "lost his way," and seeks a new direction towards finding himself again. The chorus reinforces this idea with the repeated phrase "break away," suggesting that the only way to find personal freedom is to let go of the expectations of others and take control of one's own destiny.
