JUDAS PRIEST

- Breaking The Law Lyrics

"Breaking the Law" by Judas Priest
There I was completely wasting, out of work and down
all inside it's so frustrating as I drift from town to town
feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
so I might as well begin to put some action in my life
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
So much for the golden future, I can't even start
I've had every promise broken, there's anger in my heart
you don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue
if you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing too
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
You don't know what it's like.....
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law......

Basically it's about someone who does not live up to their expectation and eventually ending up being unsuccessful, so they decided to break the law

This song just shows the fact that society will crap on the little guy. It's happening to everyone, it's happening to me, it'll happen to you. We just gotta do what we can to survive...
