Lyrics:
I'm on the run, i kill to eat
I'm starving now you're dead on your feet
Going all the way nature's beast
Do what I want and do as I please
Run fight to breathe it's tough
Now you see me now you don't
Break the walls I'm coming out
Not a prisoner I'm a free man
And my blood is my own now
Don't care where the past was
I know where I'm going ... out
If you kill me it's self defense
If I kill you then I call it vengeance
Spit in your eye I will defy
You'll be afraid when I call out your name
Run fight to breathe it's tough
Now you see me now you don't
Break the walls I'm coming out
Not a prisoner I'm a free man
And my blood is my own now
Don't care where the past was
I know where I'm going ... out
I'm not a number I'm a free man
I'll live my life how I want to
You'd better scratch me from your black book
Cos I'll run rings round you

This is a nice soundtrack driving home from the hospital, declared cancer free!
-
Clive Burr’s drumming is just insane. R.I.P. one of the best drummers of all time
-
RIP Clive Burr (1957 - 2013) - thank you for the music
-
I feel like 16 years old.....now i am 55.......my youth is not imaginable without Maiden
-
the sound engineer deserves an oscar, this is the best live sound equalisation I ever heard.
-
That drumming is unbelievably good! wow! rip clive
-
Clive Burr had something melodical way of playing, very difficult to find in other drummers. Genius ! RIP
-
RIP Clive what a drummer..
-
I will never understand why Clive Burr is not recognized as one of the leading drummers in music (PERIOD). He was so unique and had his own look and sound - all the way around - snare, cymbals, ride, HH and especially those gorgeous sounding, melodically tuned toms (Another Life, Genghis Khan, to name ONLY ca couple of tunes); and clearly had great influence on the best metal drummers to come after him. Awesome drummer and musician!
-
Holy fuck are you kidding me? for an 80's live presentation the sound is absolutely stunning, fuck even for a 2014 presentation the quality of the sound is insanely good
-
What a brilliant show this was rip Clive Burr never forgotten!!!
-
Back when people became famous because of having actual talent ...
-
One of the best performances of anything ever.
-
Clive Burr Adrian Smith pair at 3:39 - simply amazing.
-
Clive looks so Relax playing his Bass Drum is double pumping your soul with such a steady timing is insane ¡ God Bless Him ¡🙏🙏
-
I love Nicko, but this is the best Maiden line up. Clive is perfection...
-
There is something so magical about Clive's playing, I can't explain it. Nicko is superb and one of the greatest ever, but Clive had something extra in his playing. May his soul rest in peace.
-
R.I.P Clive Burr
-
This is actually the best live version of the prisoner I've heard.
-
i have seen many good drummers but when you think about a different parts of drumming there is only one master,a legend forever, Clive Burr!
