Lyrics:
We built the walls ourselves, brick by brick
With every word we swallowed, every risk we didn’t risk
We learned to make ourselves so small
To become what they said was all we’d ever be
All we’d ever be
The chains that hold us tightest
Are the ones we can’t quite see
But this won’t be my story
Yeah, it’s time that I break free
Avadim hayinu, ata bnei chorin
Time for me to find my way, time for me to part the sea
Avadim hayinu, ata bnei chorin
I begin my life today, it’s time that I break free
I wore the shame of yesterday like stones around my feet
I played the part that others wrote and called it my defeat
We learned to make ourselves so small
To become what they said was all we’d ever be
All we’d ever be
Avadim hayinu, ata bnei chorin
Time for me to find my way, time for me to part the sea
Avadim hayinu, ata bnei chorin
I begin my life today, it’s time that I break free
And I wandered, and I wondered
Would I ever find my way
But this desert wasn’t my demise
It was room enough to change
Avadim hayinu, ata bnei chorin
Time for us to find our way, time for us to part the sea
Avadim hayinu, ata bnei chorin
Leave behind the past today
It’s time, it’s time to break free
