Escape

Taken from the 2010 album Born Again by the band Newsboys, this pop chart features a guitar riff based groove along with versatile lyrics that would work with many different situations/themes. It's the perfect song to follow an opener or a ballad -- and it has enough drive to function as a closer as well!

Instrumentation: Piano/Synth/Guitar/Bass/Drums/Percussion/2 Tpt/2 Tbn/Alto, Tenor, Sax

You're being tempted by the same ol'
You say it's under control
Just remind me how you see so clearly
Face down in a hole

Press toward the light
And the light will ground you
Go with the flow
And the flow will drown you
Hey now, there's always an out

But if you get up, get up, get up
You can breakaway 
And if you get out, get out, get out
Nothing can overtake
Don't wait, escape

We get beaten by the same sticks
Until we start to crack
We get deceived by the same tricks
That's why the devil's bringing 'em back

Don't believe the hype
It's such a letdown
Don't believe the hype
It's such a letdown
Don't believe the hype
It's such a letdown
Don't believe the hype
It is a letdown!

But if you get up, get up, get up
You can breakaway 
And if you get out, get out, get out
Nothing can overtake
Don't wait, 

You gotta escape!
You gotta breakaway
You gotta escape!
You gotta breakaway
Everybody get up,
Everybody get out,
Everybody escape!
