Escape Plan Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I went to sleep a fifth deep one night when I was twenty-three

Woke up sober, hungover, age of twenty-nine

I've never been the type to keep my feelings discreet

Sometimes I try to hide 'em buried under funny lines

Walked out of prison on the second day of January

No shirt, no shoes, no service on the flip phone

I made that cell my little sanctuary

Now I'm worried how I'll feel when I get home

It's like, I hung my pictures how I liked 'em

Found the perfect place to put 'em when the window lets that light in

And I got used to having cold feet, walking on that concrete, and how that jumpsuit fitted on me

Most people hate it when it's quiet, didn't hear the way that I did

They always made me appreciate the silence

I used to block it out and drift away (drift away)

But maybe leaving was a big mistake



[Chorus]

Just tryna stick to my escape plan (escape plan)

Just tryna stick to my escape plan (escape plan)

Just tryna stick to my escape plan

My escape plan

Just tryna stick to my escape plan (escape plan)

Just tryna stick to my escape plan (escape plan)

Just tryna stick to my escape plan

My escape plan



[Verse 2]

So, I'll be honest

Didn't fit in in the commons

And my commissary always was a little light

So yeah, I had my problems, oversensitive to comments

And probably had a tendency of picking fights

A little loudmouth, but fuck it, I'm out now

Time to get comfortable around crowds

See what's happening around town

Maybe grab a coffee, pick the records down at Found Sound

Just keep my head low, my cellmate said so

Try not to focus on your cellphone (hell no)

Remember, you don't gotta do this alone

Try not to focus on what used to be home

'Cause listen, that Stockholm Syndrome could block your vision

Put you right back into that same spot you've been in

You've gotta learn to be more honest with that

If you're not careful, you might wanna go back



[Chorus]

Just tryna stick to my escape plan (escape plan)

Just tryna stick to my escape plan (escape plan)

Just tryna stick to my escape plan

My escape plan

Just tryna stick to my escape plan (escape plan)

Just tryna stick to my escape plan (escape plan)

Just tryna stick to my escape plan

My escape plan



[Verse 3]

Always lookin' for the next fix

Wake up early, time for breakfast

Development arrested

Signs pointin' to the exit

Today I'm really gonna test it

Don't let it get the best, Chris

Have a good day, man

Just try to stick to your escape plan

You're gonna be great, man

Just stick to your escape plan
