[Verse 1]
For me it's a beach bar
Or on a boat underneath the stars
Or with my band up on a stage
For a while everything's okay
For some it's a fast car
Moonshine in a Mason jar
And everybody has their way
Somehow to escape

[Chorus]
Reality, yeah, sometimes life
It is not all that it's cracked up to be
So let's take a chance and live this fantasy
Because everybody needs to break free from reality (yeah yeah)

[Verse 2]
Yeah, some days it's a bitch, it's a bummer
We need a rock and roll show in the summer
To let the music take us away
Take our minds to a better place
Where we feel that sense of freedom
Leave our worries behind, we don't need them
All we need is a sunny day and an old tailgate
And we'll escape
[Chorus]
Reality, yeah, sometimes life
It is not all that it's cracked up to be
So let's take a chance and live this fantasy
Because everybody needs to break free from reality

[Bridge]
Everybody raise your hands and voice tonight
Set your soul free, let's take a carpet ride
We'll leave it all behind
Oh oh

[Chorus]
Reality, yeah, sometimes life
It is not all that it's cracked up to be
So let's take a chance and live this fantasy
Because everybody needs to break free from reality yeah yeah

[Outro]
Come on everybody, break free
Come on everybody, break free
