"Escape" is a song by heavy metal band Metallica. This song is from their second album Ride the Lightning (1984).

The background noise audible near the end of the song are prison sirens in the background to emphasize the escape. The song "Escape" is about an escaped prisoner on the run which can also be interpretated as an escape from everything which is preventing you from doing what you want to or even from being as you want to be.
