[Intro]
Been tied down, holdin’ my breath,
Now I’m breakin’ out, runnin’ from the mess…
[Verse 1]
Been tellin’ me lies, draggin’ me down,
Pushin’ me ‘round, tryin’ to keep me bound.
I’ve had enough, I’m takin’ control,
Feelin’ that fire deep in my soul!
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m shakin’ the pain, I’m breakin’ free,
Ain’t no more chains holdin’ on to me — yeah!
[Chorus]
Cut you loose! (Cut you loose!)
Kickin’ off the hurt, no more abuse!
Cut you loose! (Cut you loose!)
Time to dance it out, I got nothin’ to lose!
[Verse 2]
You tried to own me, tried to define,
But baby, this heart, this heart is mine!
I’m done with the darkness, I’m done with the fight,
Turn up the music, I’m feelin’ alive!
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m takin’ my life, I’m steppin’ out,
This is my moment, hear me shout!
[Chorus]
Cut you loose! (Cut you loose!)
Kickin’ off the hurt, no more abuse!
Cut you loose! (Cut you loose!)
Time to dance it out, I got nothin’ to lose!
[Bridge]
Whoa-oh-oh! I’m stronger than I knew,
Whoa-oh-oh! I’m done with you!
Freedom’s beatin’ like a drum tonight,
I’m cuttin’ you loose and it feels so right!
[Chorus – Big & Repeated]
Cut you loose! (Cut you loose!)
Kickin’ off the hurt, no more abuse!
Cut you loose! (Cut you loose!)
Time to dance it out, I got nothin’ to lose!
[Outro – chant style]
Cut you loose! (yeah!)
Cut you loose! (woo!)
I’m free at last — I cut you loose!
