18, you think you`re free 
To be what you wanna be 
Have a job or 2 or 3, you`ll say you`re sorry 
Don`t try to run or fight 
Ask how or when or why 
Who cares what`s wrong or right? 
It`s money that matters 
Each day just like the next 
We struggle on and on 
In nightmares but we`re still marching 
Handcuffed to life again 
Don`t try, they`ll only push you down 
What`s opportunity? 
You`ve got what you wanted now 
How long till I`m my own? 
Independence doesn`t start when you leave home 
Locked in, can`t get out 
Your cube is your new home 
4 walls, no windows, no doors 
Hancuffed to life again 
Don`t try, they`ll only push you down 
What`s opportunity? 
You`ve got what you wanted now!
