Escape
This song is about a guy who is born into poverty, with parents who do not care. He learns to throw a baseball and with a steely attitude makes it through College and into the Professional leagues.

Wunschliste
I was born
in a dirt floor room
Lack of heating
heart a beating
Welcome to the corner
Little Tilmans corner
Family now at ten
Sleeping with four brothers
didn't have no shoes
Used the hand me downs
Daddy was a drunkard
Mama was a whore
What a life will this be
have to pray to God
Good at throwing a baseball
scouts are watching me
Picked up by the College
All star every year
Signed a big Pro contract
money flowing in
Glad to help my family
still think where I was born
No heating,lights or toilet
that's why I am the best
