Transcription: 

Don’t you know I wandered to other houses in self-exile? Don’t you know I could not stay as long as I was unwelcome in my own? Don’t you know? I’m gonna have to run back to myself Yes, I’m gonna have to run back to myself Break down the doors, break through the windows In order to reclaim myself as my own I’m gonna have to break it down Say it loud
