----
Don't sleep 'til the sunrise, listen 2 the falling rain
Don't worry 'bout tomorrow, don't worry 'bout your pain
Don't cry unless you're happy, don't smile unless you're blue
Never let that lonely monster take control of U
Be glad that U r free
Free 2 change your mind
Free 2 go most anywhere, anytime
Be glad that U r free
There's many a man who's not
Be glad 4 what U had baby, what you've got
Be glad 4 what you've got
I know (my?) heart is beating, my drummer tells me so
If U take your life 4 granted, your beating heart will go
So don't sleep until you're guilty, 'cuz sinners all r we
There's others doing far worse than us, so be glad that U r free
Be glad that U r free
Free 2 change your mind
Free 2 go most anywhere, anytime
Be glad that U r free
There's many a man who's not
Be glad 4 what U had baby, what you've got
Be glad 4 what you've got
Soldiers are a marching, they're writing brand new laws
Will we all fight together 4 the most important cause?
Will we all fight 4 the right 2 be free?
Free (Be glad that U r free)
Free 2 change my mind (Free 2 change your mind)
Free 2 go most anywhere, anytime (Free 2 go most anywhere,anytime)
I'm just glad, I'm just glad I'm free, yeah (Be glad that U r free)
There's many a man who's not (There's many a man who's not)
Glad 4 what I had baby, (Be glad 4 what U had and)
Glad 4 what I got, oh yeah (for what you've got)
Oh I'm just glad, I'm just glad I'm free,yeah (Be glad that U r free)
Free 2 change my mind (Free 2 change your mind)
Free 2 go most anywhere, anytime (Free 2 go most anywhere,anytime)

(There's many a man who's not)
I'm so... (Be glad 4 what U had and for)
Verse 1:
Would you believe me if I said...
That we are the ones who can make the change
In the world today...
Would you believe me if I said...
That all of your dreams in your heart
Can come true... today... yeah...
Would you believe me if I said...
That life could be all that you want it to be... today... yeah...
Chorus:
If I had wings I would fly
'Cause all that I need, You are
And if the world caved in around me
To You I'd still hold on
Cause You're all that I believe
And the one that created me
JESUS... because of You... I'm FREE
Verse 2:
Would you believe me if I said...
That God can make miracles happen today
Would you believe me if I said...
That you don't need to wait for the answers before...
You step out in faith...
Would you believe me if I said
That nothing is ever IMPOSSIBLE... for God... yeah... [Chorus]
Bridge:
Just live your life... with God inside
You wont regret one moment of it
High towers
Brick walls
Guns and barbed wire
And that's what you think, could hold me still
(I shall laugh)
But if that's what you trust in
Has absorded the entire faith
It's only good for me
(I'll escape)
Behind these bars
Is innocent man lying
Nothing he has done to suffer this unjustice
Weeping and crying
'Cause what he's being accused
Is all fake and lies, maded to bust me
Sirens, red and blue
Black is the sky, wind blowing by
Aren't we done soon, I'm off to Hollywood
To be judged by the family, in front of their eyes
On my knees, dying 'cause of the lies
I'm ashamed, how can you do this for me
Behind these bars
Is innocent man lying
Nothing he has done to earn this unjustice
Weeping and crying
'Cause what he's being accused
Is all fake and lies, so no one cound trust me
CCTV's
Snipers on the roof
Lust and greed
And that's what you think, could hold me still
(I shall laugh)
But if that's what you trust in
Has absorded the entire faith
It's only good for me
I'll escape
Free like the river
Flowin' freely through infinity
Free to be sure of
What I am and who I need not be
Free from all worries
Worries prey on oneself's troubled mind
Freer than the clock's hands
Tickin' way the times
Freer than the meaning of free that man defines
Life running through me
Till I feel my father God has called
Me having nothin'
But possessing riches more than all
And I'm free
To be nowhere
But in every place I need to be
Freer than a sunbeam
Shinning through my soul
Free from feelin' heat or knowing bitter cold
Free from conceiving the beginning
For that's the infinite start
I'm gone - gone but still living
Life goes on without a beating heart
Free like a vision
That the mind of only you can see
Freer than a raindrop
Falling from the sky
Freer than a smile in a baby's sleepin' eyes
I'm free like a river
Flowin' freely to infinity
I'm free to be sure of what
I am and who I need not be
I'm much freer - like the meaning of the word free that
crazy man defines
Free - free like the vision that
The mind of only you are ever gonna see
Free like the river my life
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I wanna be free from all the hurt
I wanna be free from all the pain
I wanna to end these lonely hours
I wanna to end these lonely days
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I'm floating in the blimp a lot, I feel the feeling I forgot
Of swimming weightless in the womb or bouncing gently around the room
In a minute I'll be free, and you'll be splashing in the sea
I feel no curiosity, I see the path ahead of me
In a minute I'll be free, and you'll be splashing in the sea
I hear a tiny cry as we go sliding by
It's Night Time,
We're driving,
Lights go by and make stars in my eyes.
It's cold out and it's warm in,
when I have you by my side.
And I know this is special,
when the breeze is on my face.
For now and for always I'll dream about this time and place
This is the feeling I want for always,
This is the feeling I want for always,
Free, so free.
It's special,
the feeling,
it's really nice,
so nice and new.
Slip into, believe it,
We'll do whatever we choose.
And I know this is magic,
on the road to "God knows where",
For now and forever I'll dream about this time we share
Free, so free
This is the feeling I want for always,
This is the feeling I want for always,
Oh I,
Free, so free.
Free, so free.
And do you still touch her like you do
Kissed her all over in, the way I kissed with you
And when you sleep with her, do you sometimes think of me
Not if you love her the way that I see
I had to be free, had to be free
It's all that I wanted
I wanted to see, wanted to be
Alone if I needed
(Aaa)
I had to be free, had to be free
From feelings that haunted
I wanted to see, wanted to be
Free
And then in the evening light, when the bars of freedom fall
I watch the two of you in the shadows on the wall
How in the darkness steals some of the choices from my hand
(Aaa)
Then will I begin to understand
(Aaa)
I had to be free, had to be free
It's all that I wanted
(Aaa)
I wanted to see, wanted to be
Alone if I needed
I had to be free, had to be free
From feelings that haunted
(Aaa)
I wanted to see, wanted to be
Free
I had to be free, had to be free
It's all that I wanted
(Aaa)
I wanted to see, wanted to be
Alone if I needed
(Aaa)
I had to be free, had to be free
From feelings that haunted
(Aaa)
I wanted to see, wanted to be
(Ashley Joi)
Chorus
Gotta let me live, gotta let me do for me.
Gotta let me learn, gotta let me finally be free
Even if I'm scared and it ain't fair,
Gotta make it clear this heart here will be repaired.
(REPEAT TWICE)
(Ja Rule)
Follow in my foot steps and girl if you ain't scared I'm gonna be right there, I'm a be the n***a you lean on, go on, let your mind state run free
Their ain't nothing but your open arms that can hold me.
Like when I'm runnin, runnin hopin the world will keep up wit me,
Or when I'm runnin, gunnin wantin the world to stay away from me.
Pray on, but your heart still wit me, ain't nothing but your open arms that can free me,
You know, that I'd miss every part of your body if you were gone.
How the hell can a n***g be so surrounded and feel alone and why would I be so selfish in helping stoppin your growth... I gotta let her go.
Chorus
Gotta let me live, gotta let me do for me
Gotta let me learn, gotta let me finally be free,
Even if I'm scared and it ain't fair
Gotta make it clear this heart here will be repaired
(REPEAT TWICE)
How can I move on get a lot together she can do better than me anyway
But she kept on callin me sayin Your so wrong when I'm wit you everyday
And I put up wit your bullshit, Your gonna make me lose it.
Hold on when you know the bond between us is so Strong,
But I had to let my angel spread her wings, and let her live and when she did she sped off
And a n***a ain't seen her since. But I, I, know a kitten got nine lives and I hope she stay on her feet and eventually come back to me her foolish is pride when I look in her eyes I see she's the only one that's meant for me.
Chorus
Gotta let me live, gotta let me do for me
Gotta let me learn, gotta let me finally be free
Even if I'm scared and it ain't fair
Gotta make it clear this heart here will be repaired.
(REPEAT TWICE)
(Ashley Joi)
I'm comin back
All of my love
Lovin you is the best thing I can do.
(Ja Rule)
Every time I look in your eyes I see pain
And all the time that you spent away from me, babe,
It's obviously driving the both of us crazy,
Even though you left me I know you don't hate me
(Your still my baby)
But I'm still runnin, runnin hopin this time you keep up wit me
And you keep comin comin back But baby this time don't leave.
I gonna be right here wit you
(I know you'll be right here wit me)
Chorus
Gotta let me live, gotta let me do for me
Gotta let me learn, gotta let me finally be free,
Even if I'm scared and it ain't fair
Gotta make it clear this heart here will be repaired
(REPEAT TWICE)
Wowwwwww, wowwwwww
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeahhhhhhhh
It's murder INC babe
They say if you truly love something
You should set it free and if it comes back to you
You know it's truly yours
Wait a minute, wait a minute
I think I got to take some time and clear my mind cause if I don't I might (scream)
Scream out loud in a little bit
I'm a tell you what I'm talking about Ladies (Ladies, ladies)
If you know what I mean
When you in love you give your everything
(I'm tired of that happening)
This time is for me
You been doing you
I'm goin' do me
Ladies help me sing it
You steady telling lies
I stayed and pacified
While I kept denying the truth
You always here and there
Finally I don't care
I'm going to keep it real with you
Ain't no feeling like being free
When your mind's made up
And your hearts in the right place, yeah
Ain't no feeling like being free
When you've done all you could
But what's misunderstood
(It's all good, it's all good)
Ain't no feeling like being free
I'm like an eagle set free
And finally I'm looking out for me
Ain't no feeling like being free
Cause my mind's made up
And my heart is in the right place, yeah
Hold 'em up, wait a second
I got to get something off my chest
My happiness was our happiness, I lived and (breathed)
You and all your needs
Let me speak, it's best I do what's best for me
Now ladies, (ladies)
I got my mind back
I been there and done that (no looking back no)
Oh, this time is for me
If you been doing you
I'm going to do me
I'm free
Time is of the essence
And it's much too short to waste another minute on you
While you steady trying to hide
I'm packing saying bye
Thought you were my dream come true
No it ain't easy being left out (no)
Or being forgotten about (being forgotten about)
You don't deserve my love (my love)
I've had enough set me free (free)
Can I get some loving (mmm)
Can I get some time (mmm)
Loving in the morning (Yeah)
And in the midnight hour (baby,baby)
I gave you everything you wanted (wanted)
I gave you everything you needed (mmm)
But you just didn't do right (no,no)
So baby I'm leaving
So, this is the cage that I built
Why I built it I don't know
It's bars made of anger and guilt, no lock
But somehow it just wouldn't let me go
All hail the messenger of love
I got your message loud and clear
Now I'm hungry to be healed
And you can't, you can't keep me away
I'm free
(When we are one, I am complete)
I'm free
(And I'm undone and I will be healed in your eyes)
I had to close a door in my life for another one to open
So I, I could go through
Though I had no guiding light
And no signs somehow it still lead me to you
I learned a lesson here in love
And it's ringin' loud and clear
Now, I'm ready to reveal all the things
That before I could never say
I'm free
(When we are one, I am complete)
I'm free
(And I'm undone and I will be healed in your eyes)
All hail the messenger of love
I got your message loud and clear
Now, I'm hungry to be healed
And you can't, you can't keep me away
When we are one
I am complete
And I'm undone
And I will be healed in your eyes
I'm free
(When we are one, I am complete)
I'm free
(And I'm undone and I will be healed in your eyes)
I'm free
(When we are one, I am complete)
I'm free
(And I'm undone and I will be healed in your eyes)
I'm free
(I'm free)
I'm free
(I'm free)
I'm free
(I'm free)
I'm free
(I'm free)
I'm free
Everything's broken
But nothing really needs to be fixed
Everything I always say
I always contradict
Don't keep pushing me
Don't keep aching me
I know you love me, baby
But I don't want to know how
'Cause I want to be free
But there's still things I need
And I want to be free, oh, baby
Why's it so hard to understand me
I speak clearly
Just give me what I need
Oh, oh, no, no
Just give me what I need
Oh, yeah, oh
I'm tired of strangers always comin' 'round
I'm tired of all these favours
Cause I don’t know what they're about
I've gotta get away, oh
From these conditions
Why can't I just love myself enough?
Instead of looking outside
For what I should have inside
I wanna live in a world with
No mirrors, no sizes, no consequence and no prizes
No past, no future, no ages, no losers
No hate, no desire, no fate
All these shackles that I tied myself down with
They're weighing me down
I wanna fly away, fly away from here, so far
Just give me wings
Oh, God, why's it so hard, to be free?
And I just wanna
Just wanna be free
And I wish I wish I didn't depend on your love
I wish I loved myself enough
Somebody once told me
"You can't take nothing, nothing but your deeds"
I’m not proud of most of mine
That I still have a long way to find
And I'm going down that road so fast
I wanna be free, yeah, just
Just give me a ticket, baby
Oh, it's what I need
Take it all away from me
I wanna be, I wanna be free
Oh, oh, oh
And what if I gave up all those things that I need
That I think make me who I am
Why, yeah, oh
I'm so much love to give
We're all killing ourselves for
And you were late, you were late
Would someone help me please?
Will someone help me, help me?
And I wanna be free, free, yeah
Oh, yeah, just give me what I need
I wanna be free
Yeah, when I moan, when you're gone, I come
I wanna jump, when you wanna jump?
I wanna touch, where it makes you mine
I wanna push till I get it right
'Cos I'm free, free to do the dirty things you like
I'm free, free not to do what's on my mind
When you go down and freak on me
That's when I'm free, well, that's when I'm free
I wanna fall, so you can pick me up
I wanna scream until it hurts
When you think that I can't come up
I'm gonna lay down and show you what's right
'Cos I'm free, free to do the dirty things you like
I'm free, free, not to do what's on my mind
When you go down and freak on me
That's when I'm free, that's when I'm free
I know what you're thinking, that you can't be mine
You're knackered, you wanna come, and you can't lie
Let me read your mind, so I can come inside
See what I see, I want one more time
'Cos I'm free
'Cos I'm free, free to do the dirty things you like
I'm free, free not to do what's on my mind
(When you go down and freak on me)
That's when I'm free, yeah, that's when I'm free
Woah oh, I'm free
Don't you know I'm free?
Don't you know I'm free?
Oh, I'm free, I'm free oh oh!
Free oh oh!
the sun was beating down inside the walls of stone and razor wire
as we made our way accross the prison yard
i felt my heart begin to race as we drew nearer to the place
where they say that death is waiting in the dark
the slamming doors of iron echoed through the halls
where despair holds life within it's cruel claws
but then i met a man who's face seemed so strangely out of place
a blinding light of hope was shining in his eyes
and with repentance in his voice he told me of his tragic choice
that led him to this place where he must pay the price
but then his voice grew strong as he began to tell
about the one he said had rescued him from hell, he said...
i'm free, yeah, yeah, oh, i have been forgiven
God's love has taken off my chains and given me these wings
and i'm free, yeah, yeah, and the freedom i've been given
is something that not evevn death can take away from me
because i'm free
Jesus set me free
we said a prayer and said goodbye and tears began to fill my eyes
as i stepped back out into the blinding sun
and even as i drove away i found that i could not escape
the way he spoke of what the grace of God had done
i thought about how sin had sentenced us to die
and how God gave his only Son so you and i could say...
and if the Son has set you free,
oh, if the Son has set you free,
then you are free indeed,
if the Son has set you free,
oh, if the Son has set you free,
then you are free, realy, realy free
oh, we're free, yeh, oh, we have been forgiven
God's grace has broken every chain and given us these wings
and we're free, yeah, yeah, and the freedom we've been given
is something that not even death can take from you and me
because we're free, yeah, the frreedom we've been given
is something that not even death can take from you and me
because we are free, oh we're free
we are free, we are free
the Son has set us free
if the Son has set you free
[V1]
You got yourself some action
Said you got yourself a body
You got yourself an ass with
Mind of it's own bring something
to the party You got yourself addicted
You shoot up, it saves you time
You got yourself a paycheck
Faces in the places where the sun don't shine
[CH1]

Bruk down the prisonn ey, I say you cannot wait on no one
Don't show no bad face to no one,
you've got to leave Babylon
Don't licky licky don't quiver Babylon
Look into the distance, you're living in a cage
A fire burns inside you, that fuels all the rage
You're thinking of the outside, and dream of the past
The gates to freedom lie within your grasp
They're changing the system, rewriting the laws
Renaming religion, reshaping your cause
You'll always be lonely, walking with fools
The shadows in the doorways make the rules
Free, this time
Don't be scared of who you are
Free, to find
There's no hiding in the dark
A new day is dawning, a new age begun
Nobody told you which way you should run
Wait for the thunder, break from the shell
Is this the gate to freedom from this Hell?
Free, this time
Don't be scared of who you are
Free, to find
There's no hiding in the dark
Free, this time
You can learn to live again
Free, to find
There is shelter from the rain
They're razing the fences in the pastures of doom
The fields of our heroes, the land won by few
The call of a new world, dream to transcend
Now it's time to fight and start again
Free, this time
Don't be scared of who you are
Free, to find
There's no hiding in the dark
Free, this time
You can learn to live again
Free, to find
Everything I try to give you
Everything I try to do
There¡¯s no pleasing you
You want the stars in the morning
And the sun dead of night
You place immovable objects
In my plain sight
Well I'm giving you your freedom
Though I never owned you
Nor wanted to
Hey hey hey hey
You're free
Now enjoy your freedom
Don't call me up
For cheap advice
You're free
Make your own decisions
You live your life
And let me live mine
Never held out on affection
Gave you most material things
There's no pleasing you
You called me your lover
Did I treat you that bad
You really want me to suffer
But I can take so much
Well I'm giving you your freedom
Though I never owned you
Nor wanted to
Hey hey hey hey
You're free
Now enjoy your freedom
Don't call me up
For cheap advice
You're free
Make your own decisions
You live your life
And let me live mine
Please
You save me you set me free
You heal me you make me see
You set me free
You give me of that I need
You give me ,life abundantly
You set me free
All I wanna do is praise You
Cause You have set me free
You’re my saviour
You have set me free
It is by Your grace and power
That You have set me free
You are the way
I will live for you all my days
Never will I hold back my praise
Cause You have set me free
There’s freedom in the name of Jesus
Freedom from all shame
There’s freedom in the name of Jesus
Freedom from all pain
There’s freedom in the name of Jesus
Freedom from all sin
There’s freedom in the name of Jesus
[Verse 1:]
I look around inside these four walls
And I can see this is not my home
Can you hear it now?
From inside these stone walls
My heart cries out
"I'm not where I belong"
[Pre-Chorus:]
No matter what they do
My heart belongs to You
[Chorus:]
I am free
The hands that hold the world have set me free
He has broken every chain
So I lift my hands up to the One who saves
[Verse 2:]
Take me captive
You can lock me away
But my debt is already paid
Take me prisoner
But I will no fear
'Cause my Deliverer is already here
[Interlude:]
Ohhhh...
[Bridge:]
This world can have its way
Nothing can stop Your glory
What may become of me
I had it tough when I was just a little kid
It didn't matter what I thought
It didn't matter what I did
I felt the doubt for what I lacked right from the start
It did a number on my head
It could never touch my heart
'Cause I had just enough imagination
Just enough to keep the faith
That somehow I would think of what to do
When I'd get lost in a momentary weakness of emotion
All the angels came around to help me through
Life blows fast changes, wind blows past pages
All I see is I don't need this
High strung tightrope walk, ticking time bomb clock
Scratch my name off, cut these chains
I'm free, kickin' out of that prison, I am free
Singin' those words of wisdom, let it be
Nobodys gonna put the blues inside of me
And in the stress to be the best I've done it all
I've slammed the doors, I've jammed the locks
I've laid the bricks, I've built the walls
Nobone could tell me back then why joy eluded me
Kept bumping into that misery
Locked up deep down inside of me
Took that rage and I, turned that page and I
Packed my tools, went back to school, yeah
And I passed my graduation, and I hold my Ph.d
In crash test blues I paid those dues
I'm free, kickin' out of that prison, I am free
Singin' those words of wisdom, let it be
Nobody's gonna put the blues inside of me, yeah
Time flies by in photographs
And paper scraps and songs
Here I stand in ruby slippers
Three taps takes me home
Yeah, I'm free
I'm free
I'm free, kickin' out of that prison, I am free
Singin' those words of wisdom, let it be
Nobody's gonna put the blues inside of me, Ohh yeah
I'm free
I'm free
I'm free
Yeah, I'm free
Time flies by in photographs
And paper scraps and songs
Here I stand in ruby slippers
Three taps takes me home
Yeah, I'm free
Yeah, I'm free
I'm free
Ohh yeah
I'm free
Free

We could let this love be the fadin' sky
And we could drift all night until the new sun rise
Pass me a drink or make that two
With one for me and one for you
And we'll be free
Free, free, free
Here comes corner winds and the changin' tide
We better drop them sails and get inside
When will the weather ever let us go
I guess we'll have to wait until the trade winds blow
And we'll be free
Free, free, free
There's nothing in between what we are, what we see
There's nothing in between what we are, what we see
What we are, we are just
On a life boat sailin' home
With our drunken hearts and our tired bones
Well, I just take one last look around
Yeah, and every place feels like a familiar town
And now we're free, free
And don't you wanna be free
From time to time a little free
Hey now, now free
I know you know you're free
her mamma don't like it
there's not a lot that she can do
her daddy don't like it
she's stayin' out till after two
she likes to go her own way
wild, reckless and bold
you can't hold her down boy
with diamond ring or fools gold
CHORUS
she's free so free
free free free runnin' like a wild child
free free free you kinda gotta like her style
free free free don't she make you wanna smile
she likes ti feel the night time
that is when she gets her kicks
anytime's the right time
cause just can't get enough of it
REPEAT CHORUS
she'll get your temperature risin'
like no othre girl you've known
she's full of surprises
livin' in he danger zone
REPEAT CHORUS
Whispering in his ear
My magic potion to love
Telling him, I'm sincere
And that there's nothin' too good for us
And I've just got to be me, me, me
Whispering in his ear
My magic potion to love
Telling him, I'm sincere
And that there's nothin' too good for us
But I want to be free, free, free
And I've just got to be me yeah, me, me
Teasing hands on his mind
Give our nights such mistery
Happiness all the time
Oh and how that man pleases me
But I want to be free, free, free
And I've just got to be me, me, me
(Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
I've just got to be me
(Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Feelin' you close to me
Makes all my senses smile
Let's not waste ecstasy
'Cause I'll only be here for a while
I've gotta be free, free, free, ohh
And I've just got to be me yeah, yeah, me, me
Free, free, free to be me
(I've just gotta be me)
And I just wanna, I just wanna be me
(I've just gotta be me)
I've just gotto be me, me
Ohh free
(I've just gotta be me)
I sware to my, I've gotto be me
I am no longer young, I'm an old man's daughter
We got caught with the sun going down
We spent most of our days adrift on the water
That's how I know my way around
And it's hard to be free
When freedom is just me
And the waves on the terrible sea
I could land with the rest of all the broken down birds
That's where I found my way home
With the rest of the faces on the face of the earth
Facing off with the great unknown
And all the tears that we cry
Is something gone wrong
Is somebody lost
The places long gone
Keep on moving, baby, keep on moving
The wave's coming over your knees
And it's hard to be free
See some things that I see
Be some things that I be
I've got my back against the wall
But I can still hear the blue sky call
The chains that hold me back inside
Are the prisons of my mind, yeah
Free, come set me free, down on my knees
I still believe you can save me from me
Come set me free, come set me free
Inside this shell there's a prison cell
Inside this shell there's a prison cell
I try to live the light of day
Why would I do what I hate?
But when try to reach above
I only I hurt the ones I love, yeah
Free, come set me free, down on my knees
I still believe you can save me from me
Come set me free, come set me free
Inside this shell there's a prison cell
There's a hole in the neighborhood where the shadows fall
There's a hole in my heart but my hope is not in me at all
I had a dream that my chains were broken, broken, broken open
Free, come set me free, down on my knees
I still believe you can save me from me
Come set me free, I still believe
Inside this shell there's a prison cell
Inside this shell there's a prison cell
Everybody knows that yeah I'm kinda shy
And I'm not the kinda girl who could ever approach a guy
But I wanna find a way to get you to notice me
I got a four wheel drive, 5' 5", brown eyes,
Then maybe you can handle these
Because I'm free
Free... single, sexy and sweet
Makin' my own money
Lookin' for the right party
And if you're free... spit your best game at me
If you like what you see
Maybe I'll let you share my fantasy
Now, I don't need a man in my life tryin' to tie me down
And I don't wanna playa who got kids all over town
Don't want his curl juice drippin' all over my Mercedes seat
I can't stand a man who thinks he looks better than me
I'm lookin' for a brother who like to have fun
A fly gentleman who knows how to please a woman
The last thing I need is a man that's soft
He betta get it on up and break me off
Some a that fly high rise, 6' 5", ain't shy
And that's the kinda man I need
Because I'm free
Free... single, sexy and sweet
Makin' my own money
Lookin' for the right party
And if you're free... spit your best game at me
If you like what you see
Maybe I'll let you share my fantasy
Mmm... If you're having a good time, just let go and don't be shy
Come on yeah... oh yeah
If you're down to do whatever
Then let's sing this song together
I'm free, oh come on and be free with me
Free... single, sexy and sweet
Makin' my own money
Lookin' for the right party
And if you're free... spit your best game at me
If you like what you see
Maybe I'll let you share my fantasy
Last Chance
Ooh boy, you look so good to me,
You might get lucky
'Cause I feel free tonight,
Are you available
Did you come here alone,
Won't you hang out with me
I'll freak you on the dance floor
Everybody in the house... high rise
All the brothers up in here... 6' 5"
Gotta get in on up... High rise
You know you lookin' good tonight
All the ladies in the house... 5' 5"
Gotta show 'em whatcha got... thick thighs
Freak 'em on the floor... Ain't shy
Intro:
[willie d]
Geto boys
(g.b.)'98
We gonna set this shit straight, belive that
Don't you wish sometimes you can be free
Free from incarceration
Free from paying them bills
Free to come and go when ya feel
Most of all, free from them haters
Verse 1:
[willie d]
So many problems that exist in my world today
When I'm deceased, I want my little baby girl to say
That he was real
He loved me with all his heart
He loved mama too
Even though they sometimes fought
A young nigga in the ghetto
With plenty of dreams
Surrounded by the police
And many of fiends
At 13 started mobbin'
14 started robbin'
It's hard to have morals and values
When you're starvin'
Abused, misused, and plus a bad dresser
Nobody ever told me I was special
I put a gang of tears in my mamma's eyes
But she died
Before I got a chance to apologize
It hurts to see my baby sister feeling the pain
It hurts to see my baby brother still in the game
Ain't nothin' change but my finances
I still be stressed
All these motherfucking worries got a nigga depressed
I'm just tired
Every night, I pray to jesus, rescue me
>from the poverty, hate, racism and diseases
So the lord said
He prepared a place for me
And when he do that
I'ma be free, yeah
Chorus:
I wanna be free
No more player hater
I gotta be free
Verse 2:
[scarface]
Now as I walk around in my drawers
Outside smoking weed while I scratch my balls
I'm reminsing on my homies who been lock tight
Or got light
Behind trying to feed their family one night
It's not right
Suppose you watch your mamma suffer
Cause ain't another
Her kids trying they off they ass
It's gettin' rougher and tougher
By all means nigga get your cream
Stop storming what they calling this american dream
And why you looking up for a role model
You be your model
Look who we follow
Niggas forgot about the problem
And single parent upbringings
We doing bad on our ass
Nigga fuck singing
How you gonna tell me to keep it positive
And growing up I didn't have a pop to give
So these mother fucking streets is where I gots to live
Fuck what you saying 'bout me
I'm sittin'on a couple g's and smoking weed
I'm free
Chorus:
I wanna be free
No more player hater
I gotta be free
I wanna be free
Gettin' tired of waitin'
I gotta be free
Verse 3:
[willie d]
Nobody understands me but me
It used to bother me at first
But now my conscience is free
I ask the lord to give me strength
And bless the hood
And keep these fake motherfuckers out my life for good
Knock on wood
I'm still here through all these trials and tribulations
Tryin' to make it
Shit, a lot of niggas couldn't take it
My girls hate it
When I go to clubs and stay out late
She think I'm fucking around with hoes
Gimme a break
Get off my case
Can I be committed to you
And ride 'round without feelin' tied down
Damn girl, I catch enough hell on the streets
When I come home
I want some tender lovin' and peace
No one can take your place, you my ace
I dig your jealously boo
But sometimes I need my space
I keep you laced
Like you won the lottery see
But God damn I gotta be free
Chorus:(2x)
I wanna be free
No more player hater
I gotta be free
I wanna be free
Gettin' tired of waitin'
I'm free, I'm free, so free
I'm free!
Free from all this guilt I held inside,
How could you look me in my eyes and just lie?
Kept me hostage for your own salvation,
I'm no longer there, I won't be gone and...
Cause I'm free!
She said 'I'm free! '
She said 'I'm free! '
She said 'I'm free! '
Baby, wait for me!
I'm free, I'm free, so free
I'm free!
Free from all this guilt I held inside,
How could you look me in my eyes and just lie?
Kept me hostage for your own salvation,
I'm no longer there, I won't be gone and...
Cause I'm free!
She said 'I'm free! '
She said 'I'm free! '
She said 'I'm free! '
Baby, wait for me!
I'm free, I'm free, so free
I'm free!
Free from all this guilt I held inside,
How could you look me in my eyes and just lie?
Kept me hostage for your own salvation,
I'm no longer there, I won't be gone and...
Cause I'm free!
She said 'I'm free! '
She said 'I'm free! '
She said 'I'm free! '
Baby, wait for me!
I'm free, I'm free, so free
I'm free!
Free from all this guilt I held inside,
How could you look me in my eyes and just lie?
Kept me hostage for your own salvation,
I'm no longer there, I won't be gone and...
Cause I'm free!
She said 'I'm free! '
She said 'I'm free! '
She said 'I'm free! '
Rip the pages from the book of lies
Never will we ever fall to compromise
Now we're back to set the record straight
Fueled by anger, our pain has turned to hate
Symptoms of stagnation are coming to an end
Solitude's frustration has been our only friend
Now we must break free
Mercy is no virtue when the mercyful is betrayed
There must be some kind of justice before it's too late
Right at you straight between the eyes
This relentless attack will be no disguise
Things have been said that just are not true
Hear what I say when I say this to you
Symptoms of stagnation are coming to an end
Solitude's frustration has been our only friend
Now we must break free
Mercy is no virtue, that's what the merciless say
When justice is lost, the system fails, and all we do is pay
Take a look around, 'cause the band is back in town
And vengeance and revenge is what they seek
If you see them coming you better step aside
Because now they'll show no mercy
You can see it in their eyes
Kill it, Kill it, and bring it back to life
Kill it, Kill it, bring it back to life
Kill it, Kill it, bring it back to life
Kill it, Kill it, bring it back to life
Well it's a hustle it's a hustle everyday of life
And its enough to keep your head above the water see
Seems like the older I get the more freedom I have
But everything is complicated to me
Responsibilities, parking tickets, stress oh my god
Get off my back before I snap and break
Yo I gots to elevate
Ride my fate, take it to the highest
When I'm rhyming on the city streets
The rhythms in my freakin' sneaks, sneaky freeks
Stoppin by the diner to recharge my cells
Get with the broths? and have a couple laughs
Take a long drive
Cause I'm still alive and if the pressure didn't get me
then
Won't get me now, stay high as the sky and bust the
fuck out
Free
Free
Free
Yeah...
Kill it, Kill it, and bring it back to life
Kill it, Kill it, and bring it back to life
Kill it, Kill it, and bring it back to life
Kill it, Kill it,
The music is the thing that always made me high
And its the one thing left in life that never told me
lies
And its the feeling in my heart, and the tear in my eye
The freedom of my mind and the chill in my spine and
You know the more love that I gave it always gave me
back
And if I ever borrowed something then I paid it back
And if I ever did you wrong then forgive me
But please don't put no evil on me
Cause I'm just another brother from a father
And a mother trying to make my way in the world
Don't you see
Free
Free
Free
how i wish we could be free...let free to be
we've reached our end yet were still here...hey hows it going its been
months since ive heard from you
do you still love ME because i still care if only oh if only its just a cliche
lets go lets go far from here
get away from the unending uncertainties
ive loved you so much all these years do you still think of me
my eyes... burst and bleed with ethereal sincerity
someone lit 'em up and made them burn with painfull
activity.
my skin... was covered with scars so that it could hold
the fire in me
sometimes it grew so thin i couldn't hold back all my
negativity...
my blood... is made of the dark and deep of a midnight
summer sky
enriched by every star that dropped a tear when it came
passing by...
my heart... is made of something i can never figure
out:
no human can steal it, no human can get it, it can't be
caught, it can't be bound.
i am free! i belong to no-one cuz my only husband is
The Hot Sun.
i am free! i belong to nowhere cuz my only true wife is
The Silky Moon.
my way... always pure and streight as a sunbeam can be
hot and hard, but always here, like nature's might and
purity.
my lips... are made to kiss the weary dusk and sleepy
dawn,
to touch the wind and make it move over and over, and
on and on.
my hair... each one is made to capture and hold a man's
destiny,
each curl and twist is life and death 'n' god's
providence eventually.
my soul... the quintessence of love and it's eternity
no demon can steal it, no demon can get it, enslave it
or kill it mentally!
i am free till the end of time...
cuz i serve god and i'm one of his royal messengers. x2
i am free! i belong to no-one cuz my only husband is
The Hot Sun.
i am free! i belong to nowhere cuz my only true wife is
The Silky Moon.
i face The Bright Sun with open eyes!
i face The Shiny Moon with a faithfull and pure heart!
i am free! i belong to no-one cuz my only husband is
The Hot Sun.
i am free! i belong to nowhere cuz my only true wife is
The Silky Moon.
i am free! My husband is The Bright Sun and i love him
with all my heart
his the one and only till the end of time.
i am free! My wife is The Shiny Moon and i love her
with all my heart
she's the one and only till the end of time.
i'll keep away the demons, i'll find them in the dark
i'll kill all the demons, i'll fight them in the
Staring at the dark again, you left your silhouette upon my pillow - hey, hey
Right inside the night, I'm waiting for the light, seems like I'm in the middle - hey, hey
Workin for something that I can't touch and sometimes can't even believe in - woh, woh
Cradled by the hands of fate the faith that sometimes wraps around too tight - so tight
They call me free
But I call me a fool - hey, hey
They call me free
But I call me a fool - hey, hey
Well I look back at April, but she won't look back at me - Oh, no, no, no
So I pray in May for June to stay, but she just came to wash into the sea - away
And they call me free
But I call me a fool - hey, hey
They call me free
But I call me a fool - heyah, heyah, heyah, heyah, heyah, heyah, hey
Slipped down to Mexico, started messin with her yellow afro
Slipped down behind the sheets, started talkin bout Pistol Pete, well
Slipped down to the African, started talkin bout what she can do
Well here we are again, back where we started
Slipped down to the dark again, you left your silhouette on my pillow - yeah, yeah
Well I'm right inside the night, I'm waitin for the light
Seems like I'm in the, seems like I'm always in the middle
They call me free
They call me free
Free
I feel so lost in this great big world
I don't wanna be alone I don't wanna be alone
I've been hanging out waiting for the time to come
When all my childhood doubts and fears would finally be undone
It's hard to find the words to tell you
how it hurts inside when I close my eyes
Never thought it'd be so hard to let you go
Looking for an answer I just need something to hold
Another tragic hero walking with a wounded soul
I've been hanging on to shadows in my memories
And though now you're gone I can't get you out of my dreams
Sentimental fool I wait around for you I know you're never coming home
Heartbreak of a child living in denial hiding behind blue eyes
Never thought it'd be so hard to let you go
Never thought it'd be so hard to let my heart go free
I believed I'd be with you for the rest of my life
I found it hard to leave the loneliness I'd known inside
All I ever wanted wound up broken hearted hanging on so hard to you
It's hard to find the words to tell you how it hurts inside when I close my eyes
Never thought it'd be so hard to let my eyes see
I had it tough when I was just a little kid
It didn't matter what I thought it didn't matter what I did
I felt the doubt for what I lacked right from the start
It did a number on my head but it could never touch my heart
Cause I had just enough imagination
Just enough to keep the faith
That somehow I would think of what to do
When I'd get lost in a momentary weakness of emotion
All the angels came along to help me through
Life pulls fast changes
Wind blows past pages
All I see is, I don't need this
Highstrung tight rope walks
Ticking time bomb clocks
Scratch my name off, cut these chains
I'm free...Kicking out of that prison
I'm free...Singing those words of wisdom
Let it be...Nobody's gonna put the blues inside of me..
I've slammed the doors I've jammed the locks
And in the stress to be the best I've done it all
Laid the bricks, I've built the walls
No one could tell me back then why joy eluded me
Kept bumping into that misery locked up deep down inside of me
Took that rage and I
Turned that page and I
Packed my tools, went back to school
And I've passed my graduation
I hold my Ph. D. in crash test blues
I've paid those dues
I'm free...
Repeat Chorus
Time flied by in photographs
Here I stand in ruby slippers
And paper scraps and songs
Don't You see how i fight it
Trying to hide from a life of real pain
Maybe time has allowed it
Feeling the fell when im hearing
Your name
Cos you decide how i survive
Do you realise inside oh
Just how much it's killing me
Im just caught in the middle you
Play my heart with a little bit of
Dangerous love and i really
Want to be free
Got me caught and im living in a
Low life world its your unoriginality
Thats killing me
Ive just got to be free
Now tell me what you want from me
Again and again you pretend its alrightim feeling now that i cant breathe
Cant comprehend how you cant recognise
Cos time cant change the way i feel
And you will find that i'm gonna be
More than you'll ever let me be
Im just caught in the middle you
Play my heart with a little bit of
Dangerous love and i really
Want to be free
Got me caught and im living in a
Low life world its your unoriginality
Thats killing me
Ive just got to be free
Free to disown you
Coz i thought that i told you
You been treating me badly
And you misappreciate my love
Im trying to breathe
But it's killing me slowly
And you started to break me
With your dangerous love
Got to
Got to be free
Im just caught in the middle you
Play my heart with a little bit of
Dangerous love and i really
Want to be free
Got me caught and im living in a
Low life world its your unoriginality
Thats killing me
I've read your words
I understand it's said it's done
I walk away in fear of what you said that I've become
Can't change your words now they are stains made to stay
Won't be erased
I've read your words
I understand it's said it's done
I walk away in fear of what you said that I've become
Can't change your words now they are stains made to stay
Free are those who walk away from setting suns
And free are those who laughed at chains that held them bound
Free are those who conquers in vain but won't stop to run
Battered and down they pick up their pieces to rise as one
Free are souls who wander alone in the shade of sun
And free are those who's forgotten by all but still warm inside
Free are they with no intention to fold never bend for the cold
Just to find someone too
I've read your words I understand it's said it's done
I walk away in fear of what you said that we've become
Can't change our words now
Can't make them undone
I'll walk away
I'll walk away
Today's the day I always knew would come today I gave my liberty
I'll miss that prison you release me from the ties are gone at last I'm free
Free to choose the times and places where I cry
Find new peace of mind at least I'm free to try
Oh I'm free to live in misery your love is gone and now I'm free
[ fiddle ]
I'm free to go where tear filled laughter flows where wine parades a happiness
The kind of place I've never cared to go there's where I'll be I'm free at last
Free to choose the times...
Let's go!
Everybody needs to start their own fire
Everybody needs a riot of their own
Everybody needs to be something that they are not
Everybody needs to go it alone
Because!
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Okay!
All the time spent hanging on to anything
All the time spent knowing that they're wrong
All the time wasted, stolen back, innocent
You won't get a second more so move it along
Because!
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Wishing and hoping and thinking it's you
That's got this all under control
Never a minute has passed you all by
When they haven’t invaded your soul
It’s not something you can hold
It’s not something you own
It's not something you can buy or steal
You've got it when you're alone
Being free is a tragedy
When you don't know yourself
Being free is a tragedy
When you don't know who you are
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Let's go!
Hey, hey, hey!
Alright then
This is the story of your life man
(And in other places around the world,
Got a sad destructive feelin'
Creepin' through my soul
When i'm awake and when i'm dreamin'
Just won't leave me alone
I know you've got another lover
I know you've got somethin to hide
You've been acting kind of nervous
You can't look me in the eye
I can tell, i can tell
I can tell you're cheatin' me
You're cheatin' me
Cheat, cheat, you're cheatin' me
Oohh, Baby, i'm free of you
Oohh, Baby, i'm free of you
Free of you*
Don't want you to touch me
Don't you touch me
Don't you touch me
Everything is broken
I believe in you no more
Does she satisfy you, honey
Does she make you feel alive
I can't stand the though of you naked
In someone else's arms
*repeat
I'm free of you
I'm free of you
I'm free of you
Said I'm free of you
I've got this sad destructive feelin'
In my body, baby
You've been cheatin' on me
You've been cheatin' on me
Now it seems I've fallen victim to the same disease that's
eaten up the world
Our generation's gonna fall apart if we continue to be
pushed around
So now it's time to make a change
We gotta lock down and rearrange
And reject the fundamentals of society
The time has come to live my life
I'm gonna break out and do what I like
And I don't care what you say or think about me
Yeah, yeah
Now it seems we've fallen victim to hypocrisy and
Bureaucratic lies
They got us brainwashed
So we don't stand up and fight for what we think is right
So now it's time to make a change
We gotta lock down and rearrange
And reject the fundamentals of society
The time has come to live my life
I'm gonna break out and do what I like
And I don't care what you say or think about me
Yeah, yeah
Cause it's easy when you're free
Yeah it's easy when you're free
Yeah it's easy when you're free
Yeah it's easy when you're free
Yeah it's easy when you're free
It's easy when you're free
It's easy when you're free
Yeah it's easy when you're free
Thugga (I wanna be free)
[Chorus:]
I don't need a lover
I don't need a family
I don't need a ballin' chain here keepin' me
I don't need a bride time no wide valentine
I wanna be free fallin' free ballin' on the top of the city lights callin' (on top)
Don't feel sorry for me (don't feel sorry for me)
Cause I wanna be free I wanna be free
No marriage for me I'm cool to give a single life up I be a fool
Party all night (night) sleep all day (day)
Pack up and go when I wanna get away
This weekend N.Y. next L.A.
Then in Miami just to see the heat play
Settlin' down now nope not in my world why pick when I get all the pretty girls
I wanna be free and just do me welcome to the thug show it's a movie
A lot of groupies late nights and fun times no need to worry I be fine
[Chorus]
It's peace and quit when I wake up house clean no girl clothes or make-up
Smoke what I want turn the music base up oh you tired let me call another date up
Why you mad at me baby I ain't your man I'm what they call your homie lover friend
Late night hype when you feelin' lonely (lonely) but you never ever be the one and only
I'm gone all the time to focused on my grind to be on the road with your home on my mind
I live a life that ain't right for a wife too much temptation out here every night
[Chorus]
I do what I wanna do when I want to
See who I wanna see when I want to
Be where I wanna be when I want to
Cause I'm free to do whatever I wanna do
And it feel good (good) yeah real good
No stress from my ex no more
I'm in the cool top?
Ride solo (holla) and I won't get locked down no more
Verse 1
Free to turn away - say goodbye
Free to walk away - and deny
The gift waiting for you
Whispers a still small voice
It's your choice - you're..
Chorus
Free - Free to do what you want to
Choose your own destiny
Free to do what you want to
Free to open up - and believe
Free to simply ask - and receive
There's no better time than now
You've got the right to choose
You can't lose - you're...
Repeat Chorus
[Verse 1:]
You criticize the way I talk, You can't know how I feel, yeah yeah yeah.
I sympathize with your dark nature, you don't know what that takes no no no
It's a matter of time now can't you see
Before I turn to your dark enemy
I hear a voice that's telling me
[Chorus:]
I'm free, free of the drama, free from the karma, free of the beast
Free, out of my head free of the dread, the moment we met
[Verse 2:]
You can't invade your tired old demons I won't commiserate no no no
You suck the life out of every room how much can I take I don't know
Like a flower that burns you to the touch
It's so beautiful but takes so much
Of the life inside of me
Here as I sit in this lonely square
This train of thought runs through my mind
I like it best when the choice is mine
I want to be free to speak my mind
And if I cry I want no-one to be there (be there)
Free to do what I want to do
And you should share this freedom too
If I lie it must be for a reason
We've come a long way now
There's still a way to go
And still we're moving onwards
For all that you might think we are innocent
Innocent people
We are free
I'm working hard
I'm looking for the week-end
Oh! My good God
How the work is hard
And when it's down to getting home
We don't know what to do - do you
I hurry home
All the people seem to hurry
Don't push me on
I think for myself
We move as one
We like to keep it all together
I take it all
No problem at all
I'm a page in the book
Oooh take a look
I'm a part of the whole
All my body and soul
I want you to know I've cried me a river
Why can't this taker change into a giver
Why can't I work it out
I want to be free
Free in what I'm choosin'
Free with no excuses
Free to see the people
And to move ooo! ooo! ooo!
Free to choose my lover
Free to choose my brother
Free to need another
And I do - I need you
I'm having a ball
I'm part of the wall
No-one sees me at all
I'm asking for one dance
I know that there won't be a second chance
There's no return
I'm ready to burn
I think I'll never learn
I'm looking for direction
What I need from you is real protection
I've done my best
I've failed the test
I don't care about the rest
Won't someone set me free
Free in what I'm choosin'
Free with no excuses
Free to see the people
And to move! Ooo! Ooo! Ooo!
Free to choose my lover
Free to choose my brother
Free to need another
And I do - I need you
Free
I wanna know if you wanna know which way to go
It's a narrow road, and if you carry loads, you can be set free
I don't care about the car you drive... are you alive?
This is do or die, so you and I need to be totally free
Who you wanna be like, a man or woman with vision to see right?
Do you have any passion to be right or be light?
Shinin' like you're a diamond or would it be tight
to roll with a cat, who holds a gat and lets the weed light?
Quick to brawl and get involved in a street fight
Quick to ball, forget it yall, he's enthralled with street life
He's gotcha thinking that he's hype but these type
never sleep tight they stay awake countin the sheep right?
He's got a sweet life? Please "Sike!"
He's a phony, he's really lonely that's why he clubs every week night
He can't handle the storm, he's like a cheap kite
He needs Christ, he's the opposite of Levite:
Unholy and a contradiction like "free price"
blind as a bat or better yet blind as three mice
Either way you look at it the crooks get it
don't look at me like I'm pathetic, the book said it!
I wanna know if you wanna know which way to go
It's a narrow road, and if you carry loads, you can be set free
I don't care about the car you drive... are you alive?
This is do or die, so you and I need to be totally free
Do you wanna be the kinda sis' that does work with a kiss
workin' her hips, and gotta use a skirt and a twist
I'm certain of this, love's what you're searching for, Miss
But earth's an Abyss so that love you're certain to miss
'cause most guys from birth, grow to be guys that flirt
puttin sweet lies to work so as to disguise the purp(ose)
which is to shoot the gift, just to get you to shift
your views cause if he can make you switch
He's got the tools to get in the "skins"
you know that that's been the trend
Why would he get a wife when he can just get a "friend"
and win a little gin after a spin in the Benz
with some R&B; he can hit again and again
I know it's sort of bugged but now I'm sailing on the waters of
experience, I know a wife and a daughters love
So I'm up on things that pertain to "dime pieces"
My mind reaches to share things that remain after my rhyme ceases
Let him keep the cheese, never let him eat for free
Let him meet you're needs and never let him sleep and leave
God's plan is that you marry so the creep must cleave
and learn about a womans worth like Alicia Keys
Dudes and dudettes should both do that
So I'm exposing this like film when light gets to it
You need to learn about the way the righteous do it
You gotta see what life looks like when Christ gets to it
I wanna know if you wanna know which way to go
It's a narrow road, and if you carry loads, you can be set free
I don't care about the car you drive... are you alive?
This is do or die, so you and I need to be totally free
I wanna know if you wanna know (which way to go?)
People it's a narrow road (It's his way or no!)
Theres to much weight on ya (dude can't ya see?)
You need truth dropped strait on ya (so you can be free!)
This is a call to introspection
Some interjectioninto mens perspect
since God calls them into question
all their mindsets and behavioral patterns
"I gave you a pattern," He says, "but I'm afraid you're an Adam"
So you're made in a manner that we call depraved and this grammar
It's just a big word to describe that you're enslaved and you cannot
find the power to even do the good you desire
That's even bugged that's like trying to match the good with Empire
[cause] we're the dark side
Lifes rougher and tougher than a sharks hide
We walk by dissin' the same God who on the cross died
For once we need people with vision that's cross-eyed
So we can focus on where hope is with our jaws wide open
Man, I be hoping all people will all cry out
to the Savior cause the Judge ain't lettin' y'all slide
'Cause He's the Love Boat now but I panic
'Cause y'all don't understand that He'll be the Titanic
And take under, some men with [a] great thunder
He's the great wonder, shunnin' Him's the great blunder
See it's costly, while yall see the floss
we see what God sees, that its awfully fake, like false teeth
Whether legit or the fast route, when you cash out
you'llsee that "ice" is like Frosty in the glass house
And beauty is vain, won't truly remain
you act like you'll be the same, imagine you with a cane
or you with a chain rusted, or you with th pains of time
doing the same of what it's done to every human who came before
Now how would that be? My point exactly, nuff said, come on and be set free
I wanna know if you wanna know which way to go
It's a narrow road, and if you carry loads, you can be set free
I don't care about the car you drive... are you alive?
Verse:
All of my life I've searched for clarity
I have wrestled with some paths very deep inside of me
I lost some rounds, been knocked around
Felt my share of defeat
Yet somehow I've always managed to get back...on My Feet
The world keeps telling me to a grip or I won't last
Gotta break away from solitude and let go of my past
I've never found it easy to change my stubborn ways
Or to give perspective, throw away those soul-less days.
Chorus:
We have struggled
We have Prayed
We still searching for something more
We have struggled
We still Pray
We're looking for the chance... to be free.
Verse:
Our music is a shout to where we know were not alone
We sing the words of our favorite songs, they bring us home
We find a little comfort, a little peace of mind
Say goodbye to being left out, hello friendlies come on in
Chorus
Bridge:
Go slow young man
Go slow young girl
Grow strong young man
Grow strong young girl
All of my life I've searched for clarity
I have wrestled with the demons inside me
Chorus
Bridge:
(Go Slow Young man) TO BREAK FREE
(Go slow young girl) CAUSE YOU GATTA HOLD ON TO YOUR DREAMS
(Go slow young man) IT'S NOT AS EASY AS IT SEEMS
(Go slow young girl) YOU GATTA FIGHT, FIGHT TO THE FREE
(Go slow young man) YOU GATTA STAY FREE
(Go slow young girl) STAY ALIVE, STAY ALIVE YOU SEE
(GO slow young man) DON'T GIVE IN
(Go slow young girl)
Would you believe me if I said...
That we are the ones who can make the change
In the world today...
Would you believe me if I said...
That all of your dreams in your heart
Become come true... today...
Would you believe me if I said...
That life could be all that you want it to be... today...
And if I had wings I would fly
'Cause all that I need, You are
And if the world caved in around me
To You I'd still hold on
Cause You're all that I believe
And the one that created me
Jesus... because of You.. I'm free
Would you believe me if I said...
That God can make miracles happen today
Would you believe me if I said...
That you dont need to wait for the answers before..
You step out in faith..
Would you believe me if I said
That nothing is ever impossible.. for God... Yeah, yeah
Just live your life.. with God inside
You wont regret one moment of it
You say you needed someone
But you just needed somewhere to stay
Oh any other time
Any other time
I'd have told you to be right on your way
You say you needed a friend
But you just needed sympathy
Oh any other time
Any other time
I'd have told you just to let me be
But I was so alone
So alone.
Don't say you love me baby
Don't say you love me
Don't say you love me
'cause I know it would be just a lie.
I lost the warmth in my life
And you came and helped me up
When I was down
Oh any other time
Any other time
I'd have let you carry on
Fooling around
I let you into my home
And I even let you into my heart
Oh but any other time
Any other time
I'd have let you carry on
From the very start
But I was so sad and blue
And I just didn't know what to do
Don't say you love me baby
Don't say you love me
Don't say you love me
'cause I know it would be just a lie.
Time
Has told me what I need to know
Time
Has showed me now what love is for
Time
Keeps telling me that I have got to go
Yeah I needed someone
But that time's gone
Now baby I'm gonna try and do it
All on my own.
So don't say you love me
Don't say you love me
Don't say you love me
'cause I know it would be just a lie.
Don't say you love me baby
Don't say you love me
Oh don't say that you love me
'cause I know it would be just a lie
I don't want you to tell me that you love me
Because I know, because I know
Yeah I know, yes I know
Throw down your hat, kick off your shoes
I know you ain't goin' anywhere
Run 'round the town singin' your blues
I know you ain't goin' anywhere.
You've always been a good friend of mine,
But you're always sayin' "Farewell"
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
Throw down your gun, you might shoot yourself...
Or is that what you're tryin' to do?
Put up a fight you believe to be right
And someday the sun will shine through.
You've always got something to hide
Something you just can't tell
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
And I know what you're wishing for
Time in a peaceful world
Time in a peaceful world
Time in a peaceful world
Time in a peaceful world
You've always been a good friend of mine,
But you're always sayin' "Farewell"
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, ow!
There she stood in the street
Smiling from her head to her feet
I said hey what is this
Now baby maybe, maybe she's in need of a kiss
I said a hey what's your name baby
Maybe we can see things the same.
Now don't you wait or hesitate
Let's move before they raise the parking rate, ow!
All right now, baby it's-a all right now
All right now, baby it's-a all right now, ooo...
Let me tell you now
I took her home to my place
Watchin' every move on her face
She said look what's your game baby
Are you trying to put me in shame
I said slow, don't go so fast
Don't you think that love could last
She said love, lord above
Now you're tryin' to trick me in love, ay!
All right now, baby it's-a all right now
All right now, baby it's-a all right now.
Yeah it's all right now, ooo
(guitar solo)
Oh yeah ow!

Took her home (yeah) to my place
Watching every move on her face
She said look, ah, what's your game
Are you trying to put me in shame
Baby I said slow, slow don't go so fast
Don't you think that love can last
She said love, lord above
Now he's trying to trick me in love, ah

All right now
Baby it's a all right now
Yeah
We're so happy together, ow!
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right
Everything's all right, yeh
They call me the hunter
'cause that's my name
pretty little woman like you
is my only game
I bought me a love gun
just the other day
and I aim to aim it your way
ain't no use to hide
ain't no use to run
'cause I got you in the sight
of my girly gun
The first time I saw you
standing on the street
I said to myself
Oh! ain't she sweet
I got my love gun loaded
with hundreds of kisses
soon as I pull the trigger baby
there will be no misses
Ain't no use to hide
ain't no use to run
'cause I got you in the sight
of my girly gun
Ain't no use to hide
ain't no use to run
'cause I got you in the sight
of my girly gun
The first time I saw you
standing on the street
I said to myself
Oh! ain't she sweet
I got my love gun loaded
with hundreds of kisses
soon as I pull the trigger baby
there will be no misses
Ain't no use to hide
ain't no use to run
'cause I got you in the sight
So we started in the cornfield
And I know we did not slack
We got everything in order
But we forgot to bring the bucket back
The foreman he went crazy
And ran around the field
Said we must be lazy
Had to be seen to be believed
Seen to be believed.
But it was a long way
From this highroad
It was a far away from here.
The farmer had a daughter
And she worked at the wishing well
Put one leg in the water
'til she found the mission bell
The old man went crazy
And ran to get his gun
We had a bad time explaining
We were just having drunken fun
Just having drunken fun.
But it was a long way
From this high road, Oh!
It was a long way from here
So we walked along this road
Just tellin' stories as we go
We just walk along.
Well the farmer had a daughter
And she did not speak a word
We used to kiss her in the orchard
Till one morning we were overheard
The old man he went crazy
Running around the field
Said we must be crazy
Had to be seen to be believed
It's like a soft caressing sea
Or making love in harmony
Or the centre of a starry galaxy
It's like the richness that's inside
The one I'm trying to describe
Or the living water stretching far and wide
Searching for a shadow in the morning sun
Playing with your woman when there's work to be done
People, won't you listen when I tell the truth
I give her all my sugar, she's got such a sweet tooth yeah yeah
It's like a sound that rests my soul
Or like a part that's now a whole
Or as something that is burning bright as gold
I want her near me everyday
Then I want to hear her say
There is somthing here between us as we lay
Searching for a shadow in the morning sun
Playing with your woman when there's work to be done
People, won't you listen when I tell the truth
Oh, sunny day
Melting away
Oh sunny day
Melting away
Some say she was good for no one
But I say
She was bad for every one
Help me now' cause I feel
I'm fallin'
Maybe somehow
You will hear me callin'
Baby you didn't take everything
If you want it
You know I would bring
All the love you left behind
When you said goodbye.
Oh sunny day
Melting away
Oh sunny day
Melting away
Inside she was really nothing
I was a fool and I gave her everything
Help me now
'Cause I feel I'm fallin'
Maybe somehow you will hear me callin'
Baby you didn't mean what you said
Things that you told me
Are still in my head
And though it's too late
I realise all you did was lie.
Oh sunny day
Melting away
Oh sunny day
I went down to the centre of town
And my feet was a burning ground
She stood on the corner merrily as can be
I said hey good lookin won't you come with me
She said yeah
I am the stealer
Came to steal your love
The sun was shining
The world was right
I said "tell me baby wha'cha doin' tonight"
I'm goin' round the corner
Where the music's loud
I'm tired of the city
Won't you come on round
I said yeah!
I'm the stealer
Come to steal your love
Steal your love oh yeah!
Goin' round the corner
Where the music's loud
I'm tired of the city
Won't you come on round
I said yeah
I am the stealer
Come to steal your love
Steal your love
Steal your love
Steal your love
I am going to steal you love away
I am going to steal you love away
Baby won't you tell me
What you're tryin' to do
You don't mean to say
That our love is through
Because I love you
Yes I do
And I've go to see it through
I lives on the moutain
A hundred mile from town
That's a long way to go
Baby now
But soon I'm gonna be around
Because I love you
Yes I do
And I've got to see it through
Baby now
I'm gonna steal you baby away with me
I want to love you
Because you see
I am riding on a pony
In the middle of the night
I'm gonna be there in the morning
And I hope that it's all right
Sometimes when I am loney
I think about your face, baby
So I get on my pony
And I ride over your place
Because I love you
Yes I do
And I've go to see it through
I wanna take you, far away
I wanna love you, no matter what you say
Because I am riding on a pony
In the middle of the night
I'm gonna be there in the morning
And I hope that it's all right.
I am riding on a pony
In the middle of the night
I'm gonna be there in the morning
And I hope that it's all right.
I am riding on a pony
In the middle of the night
I'm gonna be there in the morning
Do you remember
Every morning
We would dress
And we'd be still yawning,
In the street
Where people meet
We would wander around
In the northen heat.
All these days are gone
My Baby, now I'm all alone
I wish I had you near me
Baby, I wish I had you here
In the summer
Days were lazy
And sometimes the heat
Would drive us all crazy
Singing songs all night long
Till the light thru' the window
Said another day had come
All these days are gone
Baby, now I'm all alone
I wish I had you near me
I wish I had you here.
Baby, do you remember
Every morning
We would dress
And we'd be still yawning,
In the street
Where people meet
We would wander around
In the northen heat.
Baby, oh these days are gone
And I'm all alone
I still remember
The good old days we spent together
Baby I can't forget
You know me
I can't forget
AH ah ah ah ah
AH ah ah ah ah
I need to be free where the air is clean
And the sparking river is cool on my skin
When the sun shines I'll follow it's glow
And I won't stop moving till it's sinking low
Over the green hills and into the sun
That's where I feel I ought to be goin'
Blue sky above me and green earth below
Don't even matter which way I go Yeah!
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
The trees hold their arms out to catch what life gives
But the people try to snatch all there is
They can have all I own. I don't need anything,
I'll just follow the river, and see what it brings.
Ah ah ah ah ah.
She talks to me of wisdom
We walk beside the sun
Rainy night and rainy day
Might as well keep away
I've got trouble on the run
Weariness
Weariness has left my friend
My head goes round
And round again
On my way and I might be late
I don't worry
Every thing can wait
She talks to me of feelin'
Feelin' good
And feelin' better
Once upon a time I thought
I could love around and not get caught
But then I'd never met her
Weariness, weariness has left my friend
Head goes 'round
And 'round again
I'm on my way
Oooh, And I might be late
I don't worry every thing can wait
Do you mean
What you say ? Do You mean
When You say you'll be mine ?
I want you to be mine
All mine
Weariness
Weariness has left my friend
Head goes 'round
And 'round again
On my way and I know I may be late
I don't worry
Every thing can wait
Every thing can wait
Everything Cruel can wait
Oh I Wept
For days
Filled my eyes
With silly tears
But I don't
Care no more
I don't care if
My eyes get sore.
I take my seat on the train
And let the sun come melt my pain
Come tomorrow I'll be far away
In the sunshine of another day.
A worried mind
Makes so hard to bear
Hard to live
And hard to care.
But I don't
Care no more
I don't care if
My eyes get sore.
Now I've left
It all behind
I did not care
To be so unkind.
I did not...
But the street
Is warm and bright
Far away
Travellin' man goes anywhere
I don't stay nowhere long
Travellin' man don't turn your back
Before you know I'm gone
Don't ask me where have I been
Or if I'm staying long
'cos till I find a love that's real
I'm gonna keep on travelin' on
Travellin' man is what I am
I don't stay nowhere long
Travellin' man don't turn your back
Before you know I'm gone
Hey Baby, now jump aboard
And help me to sing this song
Don't worry 'bout the boys and me
Aint gonna do you no wrong
Travellin' man that's what I am

Travellin' man don't turn your back

Travellin' man don't turn your back
Well the train I ride
Is leaving the station
And the train I ride
To my destination
I was walking
Now I'm travelin' in style
I was walking
Now I've got me a ride
Well I got no need
For no company
Got my blues guitar
That's all I need
I ain't walking
Now I'm travelin' in style
I aint walking
Now I've got me a ride
Think I've come to
The end of my song
If you feel you want to
Why don't you sing along
I ain't walking
Now I'm travelin' in style
I aint walking
Now I've got me a ride
I ain't walking
Now I'm travelin' in style
I aint walking
Now I've got me a ride
I ain't walking
Now I'm travelin' in style
I aint walking
If it's the cold black night
That's eating up your heart
The cold damp sweat
Keep you and sleep apart
The ticking clock
Just watching on the table
The wind that howls
As much as it is able
Then worry baby worry
There's a reason for you to
There's a silent, deadly message
In the wind that's meant for you
And the sleeping streets
Have closed their tired eyes
The fear that creeps
Will move & slowly rise
Your beating heart
Will hammer at your breast
Your aching brain
Will cry aloud for rest
Worry baby worry
There's a reason for you to
There's a silent, deadly message
In the wind that's meant for you
Worry baby worry
There's a reason for you to
There's a silent, deadly message
Sleep now my little baby
Safe inside your mama
You have no name
But soon you will
And soon the sun will shine
Guardian of the Universe
Son of son
Shine a light of peace and love
On this little one
On this little one
Slowly comes the day
You will see, hear, touch and feel
Slowly comes the day
You will know
What kind of world this is
Guardian of the Universe
Son of son
Shine a light of peace and love
On this little one
On this little one
Slowly comes the day
You will see, hear and touch and feel
Slowly comes the day
You will know
The kind of world this is
Guardian of the Universe
Son of son
Shine a light of peace and love
On this little one
Guardian of the Universe
Son of son
Shine a light of peace and love
On this little one
On this little one
Carry me away
I know your angel eyes
Can see through me
Carry me away
Far away from the love you give
So generously, so generously.
Woman oh! Oh!
I've got a burning heart
I need to tell you
That it's you I love
I got a burning heart
I need to tell you that
I never get enough
Never, never, never
Never get enough.
Woman oh! Oh!
Marry me today
I'll give you all I own
Except my car
Marry me today baby
I'll give you everything
But my guitar
But my guitar and my car
Woman oh! Oh!
Let me hold your tongue
For I know you'll understand
The way I feel,
Baby I know you'll understand
That all I want to do
Is take your hand
I don't mean to do no harm Baby
I just want to be your man
Oh! I just want to be your man Baby
Hey I want to be, I want to be,
Hey, woman I'll be your man
Throw down your hat, kick off your shoes
I know you ain't goin' anywhere
Run 'round the town singin' your blues
I know you ain't goin' anywhere.
You've always been a good friend of mine,
But you're always sayin' "Farewell"
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
Throw down your gun, you might shoot yourself...
Or is that what you're tryin' to do?
Put up a fight you believe to be right
And someday the sun will shine through.
You've always got something to hide
Something you just can't tell
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
And I know what you're wishing for
Time in a peaceful world
Time in a peaceful world
Time in a peaceful world
Time in a peaceful world
You've always been a good friend of mine,
But you're always sayin' "Farewell"
And the only time that you're satisfied
She was a wild Indian woman and she drove me wild
She was a wild Indian woman till she had my child
You don't need your horses baby, you got me to ride
You don't need your feathers, I'll keep you warm inside
She's got dark brown eyes and long long black hair
She's got a peaceful side but I just don't know where
She used to sleep on the prairie with the stars above
She used to hunt in the woods till I caught her love
You don't need your horses baby, you got me to ride
You don't need your feathers, I'll keep you warm inside
She's got dark brown eyes and long long black hair
Walk in my shadow
My throat is dry
My knees are weak
It's so damned hot
I can't even speak
Walk in my shadow
I can't take it anymore
When I get you in the shadows
I gonna show you what it's for
Yes I know baby
That's a shady kind of deal
I just want to find out
How you feel
Walk in my shadow
I ain't gonna take it anymore
When I get you in the shadow
I'm gonna give you what's in store
Yes I know you say I'm stupid
It just wouldn't be cool
Well I can tell baby that
I aint no fool
Walk in my shadow
I can't take it anymore
When I get you in the shadow
I'm gonna lay you on the floor
When I get you in the shadow
I'm gonna give you what's in store
I've been a bad bad boy
And I know I should be good
A bad boy
So long that it must be in my blood oh!
Oh! yeah
Oh! Oh
Let me tell you this
I've been feelin' my way
Every chance I get
You know I love every woman
Every woman you can bet
Trouble on double time
You know my school teacher
Told me before I left school
That a man with two women's
Not a man but a fool
Feelin' my way
Every chance I get
You know I love every woman
Every woman you can bet
Trouble on double time
Feelin' my way
Every chance I get
You know I love every woman
Every woman you can bet
Trouble on double time
It's driving me out of my mind
Driving me out of my mind
Verse1:
Young woman confused
Young woman abused
You must understand
It's never too late to, lose who you are
And choose who you are supposed to be
Supposed to become
You've been in and out
Up and down, back and forth
Backwards around
Not a friend, not a mother, not a father
Just God and you should make a choice
What you ought to do
What matters most
Who you are to you
Opinions of the old and young
Shouldn't matter to you
Take advice think it over twice
Make a choice that helps you sleep at night
It's decent, but recently
Things have shown us
We have done the wrong things often
Never suicide, that's the easy route
There's always another way out
Think about it (think about it)
Chorus (2x)
You can give up
Or you can get up
Just don't let what you need pass by
Spread your wings to the sky
Let you soul fall in love
You can fly
Verse 2:
Now see if you went through life with your eyes closed
You never would'a known there was a high road
Let people get the best of you and get mad at them
Instead of bein' mad at yourself
You're only number one in your life
And you will decide if it goes right
Every time you digress
Defeat your progress
Feed you knowledge, but you must digest
The controversy yo can get personal
They don't understand till the role reversal
Seekin' fame, play their games
Gave a whole lot for a whole little gain
Push comes to shove
Do you push or shove?
When the choice is yours
Do you leave or you love?
All the tears you cried, you're dyin' inside
When will you decide to survive
Chorus (2x)
You can give up
Or you can get up
Just don't let what you need pass by
Spread your wings to the sky
Let your soul fall in love
You can fly
(4 x)
You can give up
Or you can get up
Just don't let what you need pass by
Spread your wings to the sky
Let you soul fall in love
Watch my hand
Writing this last letter
Watch my hand
Knowing I won't forget her
No I won't forget her
Take my things
Every thing is over
All my things
Leave behind my love
Leave behind my love
La la la
La la la
La la la
Now lighing a cigarette
Now knowing I will regret
The way our love had to end
In her room
Standing alone
All alone
Soon I will be gone
Soon I will
Soon I will
Soon I will be gone
Soon I will
Soon I will
Sing me a sad song
And I'll be right on my way
A sad song like the songs of yesterday
Well my father used to sing the blues
Sometimes it was good
But my mother never saw the use
And she chased him for his blood
A sad song like the songs of yesterday
A sad song
And I'll be right on my way
Oh you know my father
Always used to say
A bad workman blames his tools
But it seems to me
A man who uses the tools
Is just a fool
Sad song
And I'll be right on my way
Sad song
Like the songs of yesterday
Well now the streets are filled with silent cars
And all the world's a stage
But I must get to work today
Today I get my wage
Sad song
Then I'll get on
On my way
Just like a song of yesterday
I'm a soldier boy
standing on the battlefield
and I hear the bugle call
calling me to my destiny
all around me is people falling down.
I'm a soldier boy
standing on the battlefield
Oh! The sky is red overhead
burns my eyes like a fireball
all around me is people falling down.
I'm a soldier boy
standing on the battlefield.
[Intro: Tweet]Ooh
Shook up, Shook up, Shook Up
Listen, it's something like dynamite
Oow!
[Verse 1: Tweet]This morning
(I Cried)
Had a good feeling
(Inside)
Exceptional emotion
(That's why)
I gave him my devotion
He turns the lights off and loves my body
Natural feelin', I can't describe it
What a relationship, so contagious
He gives me all I want, that's why I'm faded
Shook Up
[Hook: Tweet]How can I make it through the day?
In love with you
How am I supposed to do everything?
When I'm shook up, shook up, shook up
How can I make it through the day?
In love with you
How am I supposed to do everything?
Everything, you are my everything
[Verse 2: Tweet]Can't fight the feelin'
(Inside)
Lovin' what I'm seein'
(Your mine)
The way your touchin' my body, babe
(Feels right)
Don't stop makin' me fantasize
He turns the lights off and loves my body
Natural feeling, I can't describe it
What a relationship, so contagious
He gives me all I want, that's why I'm faded
Shook Up
[Hook: Tweet]How can I make it through the day?
In love with you
How am I supposed to do everything?
When I'm shook up, shook up, shook up
How can I make it through the day?
In love with you
How am I supposed to do everything?
Everything, you are my everything
[Rap: Free]Keep a G on stash
No, I don't mean cash
Let him know you gotta be so bad
Maintain ya protein like amino ac
Make ya boat fiend, show em' it's yo scene
Sex like heron, clothes is mo' fiend
Fa sure he approachin' the jokes that most dream
You ain't gotta do everything
You could keep him in pocket, have him goin' through change
He say he won't well be patient, he frontin'
(... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...)
Nice and stuntin' and thumpin', ya boy moanin' and gruntin',
And all the while ya laughin' now he say he won't
Turn the tables, keep em' spinnin' like spree's, please
Keep em' tamed, complain' you won't change
Emotionally, coast is me,
I'm a G.M., playa, no coachin' me
[Hook: Tweet]How can I make it through the day?
In love with you
How am I supposed to do everything?
When I'm shook up, shook up, shook up
How can I make it through the day?
In love with you
How am I supposed to do everything?
Everything, you are my everything
If you see me flyin', all across the sky
There I go, I'm a flyin' high
Six white horses, a chariot made of gold
Seven lovely angels abide my soul
I've got the moon on my right, the sun on my left
The world is behind me, only one way to go
That's straight ahead
That's where I'm going now
Well, I've just stepped out, out of my grave
There I go, I ain't no slave
In my right hand is the sword of truth
In my left hand is the fire of love
I call to the land, I call to the sea
I call to the sky
Lord have mercy
Won't you hear me?
As I look behind me, what do I see
A pair of golden wings
That seemed to be attached to me
Wings on my back, wings on my back
I've got to fly away, I've got to fly away
You know I just can't wait till tomorrow
I've got to fly my way
I've got to fly away, I've got to fly away
Sail on my brother
Sail on through the night
Sail on my sister
Sail on through the night
Beautiful as the day is long
Beautiful as the day is long
Sail on your troubles
Sail on through your doubts
Sail on your worries
Sail on soon you'll work it out
Beautiful as the day is long
Beautiful as the day is long
I've always been a believer
In the good things of life
But they don't all come wrapped in cellophane
And they don't always seem to turn out right
They don't always seen to turn out right
I've always been a believer
In the good things of life
But they don't all come wrapped in cellophane
And they don't always seem to turn out right
No, no, no,
They don't always seen to turn out right
Sometimes they do not
My brother Jake, hat, shades, head in a daze
My brother Jake, have you thought about changin' your ways?
He goes out, he don't have no doubt
He don't have to know what the world's about
My brother Jake, head, down, it's a scrapin' the ground
Jake, stay away, you know you can't always be down
He goes out, he don't have no doubt
He don't have to know what the world's about
I said Jake, now won't you wait
What's got into you
Your candle is burning, the wheels are turning
What you gonna do?
My brother Jake, won't you start again try makin' some friends
Jake, it's not too late to start again by making amends
He goes out, he don't have no doubt
He don't have to know what the world's about
I said Jake, now won't you wait
What's gone wrong with you
Your candle is burning, the wheels are turning
What you gonna do?
Hey, I said Jake, don't you wait
What's gone wrong with you?
Your candle is burning, the wheels of time are turning
What you gonna do? Yeah
I said Jake, Jake, Jake, won't you wait
What's got into you - oh
Your candle is burning, the wheels of time are turning
What you gonna do?
Listen, I'm gonna break you Jake
Because you got what it takes
I was born on the muddy water
I didn't know right from wrong
My mom she said look here son
I'll show you how it's done
Take you a woman and treat her right
She'll be by your side night and day
The first time you deceive her
You've broken her spell
Then I had bad luck
Like a fool I fell where I stood
I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied
Tryin' to find a dry place to hide
To hide.
But I'd rather sleep that say a word
I don't believe a word that's heard
The first time I deceived you
I held it inside
Take you a woman and treat her right
She'll be by your side night and day
The first time you deceive her
You've broken her spell
Then I had bad luck
I held it inside
Like a fool I smiled on my pride
I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied
Tryin' to find a dry place to hide
To hide.
I was walking in the rain with my shoes untied
Tryin' to find a dry place to hide
To hide.
I work hard everyday
Come rain or shine
And I don't need no one
To tell me 'bout a girl of mine
She's got so much love
And she saves it all for me
I would not be lying
That's the way it's got to be
So Mr. Big
You'd better watch out
When only you hang around me
Oh for you now
I will dig
A great big hole in the ground.
I don't care who you are
So don't explain
Just get out of here
And don't come back again
I don't want a thing from you
I don't want to give you nothing too
Get out of here
Before I lose my cool.
Mr. Big
Oh watch out
Baby and don't you hang around me
Oh for you now
I will dig
A great big hole in the ground.
So Mr. Big
You'd better watch out
When only you hang around me
Oh for you now
I will dig
Sunday morning I rise
And I stand to face a new dawn
Sunday morning a new day is born
Such a long way to go
And so little time to get there
Such a long way to go
But I want you to remember
All the love we used to know
Think of me sometimes
My love.
Morning morning, sad day
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
Morning morning, sad day
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
In the evening I sit
And my thoughts they turn to you
In the evening I think of my home
And I need you to remember
All the love we used to know
Think of me sometimes
My love
Morning morning, sad day
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
Morning morning, sad day
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
Sitting in a graveyard
Waiting for the dawn
Leaning on my tombstone
Till the night is gone
Oh how the moon
Hangs in black sky
Wish i could find out
The reason why
I sit here alone
And cry
My woman was so lovely
Together we were one
No sunshine in my weary eyes
Now that she has gone
Oh how the moon
Hangs in black sky
Wish I could find out
The reason why
I sit here alone
And cry
Palm trees whisper to me
From your spreading height
Tell me all the loney stories
Of the world at night
Oh how the moon
Hangs in black sky
Wish I could find out
The reason why
I sit here alone
Over there is my magic ship
Would you care to go on a trip
We'll be sailing on and on
To a land where few have gone
Beyond the skies in my mind
Sweet bells ring and ring and ring you harmonies
Rolling out like the waves on the sea
Sweet bells ring and ring and ring your harmonies
Rolling out to those who can see
Let's away to a distant night
Let's away on a magic flight
We'll be sailing on and on
To a land where few have gone
Beyond the skies in my mind
Sweet bells ring and ring and ring you harmonies
Rolling out like the waves on the sea
Sweet Bells ring and ring and ring your harmonies
Calling out to those who can hear
Oh who can see
Because were sailing
Sweet bells ring and ring and ring you harmonies
Rolling out like the waves on the sea
Sweet Bells ring and ring and ring and ring your harmonies
Rolling out to those who can hear
Oh can you see
Inside
Don't be afraid,
Step aboard
Oh, oh, oh, oh,
I'm layin' in the sunshine
Just outside my door
Dreamin' of the work I should do
Just layin' on the floor
Fences need repairing
And money to be earned
But I'd rather sit right here
And think about the world
So let me lie in the sun
Let me dream all alone
Let my worries fly away
I am happy here so let me stay
If you could only feel the same
Your world would be a peaceful place
So let us lie in the sun
Let us dream all alone
Let our worries fly away
So happy here
So let me stay
If you could only feel the same
Lover, lover on the line.
Call me, call me anytime
Tell me what I like to hear
Make me feel like you are near
On the phone you make me sweat
You make my body oh so wet
Tell me what is on your mind
'Cause you're my lover on the line
Lover on the line.
You want see me but you're blind
Try to touch me, touch me with your mind
Love me on the line.
For this unit you are mine
I'm your lover, lover on the line
If you tell me all your dreams

If you keep on holding the line

Girl I like the way you moan
When you're on your telephone
Don't be afraid now, don't be shy
You can feel me if you try.
I can have you anytime
'Cause you're my lover on the line
With the satellites and through the space
I talk to you, a voice without a face
With the satellites and through the space
I'm the ............. you love and you embrace

And by the way before you go
I'd like to say
I love you so
If it's goodbye maybe for good
I will not cry
Maybe I should
And I

Oh how this year has slipped away
We she'd no tears
So why today
And all this time has made me feel
Love is no crime
And love is real
And I
Ooh! and I love you so
And I ooh I love you so
Remember me when you're far away
I'll remember you
No matter where I stay
And by the way before you go
I like to say

And all this time has made me feel
Love is no crime and love is real
Maybe I should
And I

Baby I love you

I love you babe
I got to say
was born by the river, just like this river,
I've been moving ever since
Ain't got no body to call my own you know
I've been moving since the day I was born
Life is a game just made for fun, I don't need no body
No, I don't love no one
Yes, I'm a mover baby
Now get out of my way will ya?
Don't try to stop me now
Following the footpath one fine day,
When I asked a wise man which was the way,
He said "follow you heart and look for yourself,
And come back and tell me what you have learned".
Yes, I'm a mover.
Went back and told him I'd found me a wife,
Eleven children and a real good life,
Told him I'd left this happy home,
'cause I need to return to the long winding road
If you are tryin' to screw me baby
Take my advice
Opportunity baby, never knocks twice
If you are tryin' to fool me baby
Don't play around
'cos when I get to you baby
I wont make no sound
'cos I'll be creepin'
I'll be creepin' baby
I'll hold you in my arms
Like nobody else
And when I know we're apart
I wont take no less.
Take all you things and move far away
Take all your furs and rings baby
But don't you sing hurray
You can change your address
But you wont get far
Don't make no difference wherever you are
Yeah 'cos I'll be creepin' baby
And I'll be creeping 'round your door
I'll hold you in my arms, like nobody else
And when I know we are apart, I wont take no less
I'll hold you in my arms, like nobody else
And when I know we are apart, I wont take no less
Take all you things and move far away
Take all your diamond rings now baby
But don't you sing hurray
You can change your address
But you wont get far
Don't make no difference baby wherever you are
I met her, just a barroom queen in Memphis
She tried to make me upstairs for a ride
She had to carry me right across her shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink her off of my mind
She's a honky tonk woman
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme the honky tonk girl.
I met her either say in New York City
I had to put up a one heck of a fight
The lady said she'd covered me with roses
She broke my nose and then she broke my mind.
She's a honky tonk woman
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme the honky tonk girl.
--- Instrumental ---
She's a honky tonk woman
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme the honky tonk girl.
She's a honky tonk woman
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme the honky tonk girl.
She's a honky tonk woman
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
Just a young man
By an old road
By the route he choose.
An ancient song
In an old tongue
For this man was sung.
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
It's a heavy load...
By a bright stream
Came an old dream
Things are never what they always seem
And so he went on
Travelling on
Now he's a long way from home
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
It's a heavy load...
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Can't go no further down this long road
Oh I'm carrying a heavy load
Well my maker
must 've been a hard heartbreaker
I said my maker
must 've been a hard heartbreaker
I'll tell you why
I'm breaking my own heart
tryin'....to love a faker
Like a blind man
my little house is on fire
just like a blind man
my little house is on fire
I'm burning my own eyes out
tryin'....to reach the door
Well the sun is shining
but it sure don't seem to reach my heart
well the sun is shining
but it sure don't seem to reach my heart
I'm wasting my whole life
tryin'.....to make a new start
Make a new start
make a new start
make a new start
Goodbye, I hope we meet again
Goodbye, is this how it's got to end?
But we've come to the end of our road together
Made a stand that's gonna last forever
Brother tell me, what you're gonna do?
Will you take the high road?
Will you take the low road?
Will you take the fast train out of town
To get back home?
Will you take the high road?
Will you take the low road?
Oh brother
You're out on your own
Goodbye, is this how it's got to be?
Call by we can rap over tea
We've come to the end of our road together
Made a stand that's gonna last forever
Brother won't you tell me, what you're gonna do?
Will you take the high road?
Will you take the low road?
Will you take the fast train out of town
To get back home?
Will you take the high road?
Will you take the low road?
Oh brother
Now that you're out on your own
We learned a lot from each other
That's how we came to be brothers
Brother won't you tell me what your problem is
Oh and don't waste your time on hate
Can be used in better ways
Remember the time and better days
Goodbye, I hope we meet again
But the good times will always remain
But we've come to the end of our road together
We made a stand that's gonna last forever
Brother tell me what you're gonna do
Will you take the high road?
Will you take the low road?
Will you take the fast train out of town
To get back home?
Will you take the high road?
Will you take the low road?
Oh you're out on your own
Now will you take the high road?
Or will you take the low road?
The fast train out of town
To get back home
Will you take the high road?
Will you take the low road?
Oh brother, you're out on your own
Out on your own, out on your own
Yes I've had my fun
If I don't get well no more
Yes I've had my fun, baby
If I don't get well no more
You see I have this pain in me
An I'm goin down slow
Won't somebody write my mother
Tell her the shape I'm in
Please write my mother
Tell her to pray for me
Tell her to forgive my sin
Tell her don't send no doctor
Yes a doctor can do me no good
Yes no doctor mama
Doctor can do me no good
But you see through all of my trials
I never did all the things I could
On the next train south
Baby you can look for my...
On the next train south
Mama, you can look for...
Yes now if you see my baby baby
Help me to repair
Things I have done wrong
Help me to find a way
To get where I belong
All you can say
When you're feeling this way
Is that somebody needs you
And wants you to stay
And all you can do
When your something is through
Is take all your time
Don't let it get you blue
Help me to repair
Things I have done wrong
Help me to find a way
To get where I belong
There' too many people
In this whole emptiness
Trying to find
A little happiness I hope
Too many people
Just hiding their face
And I'm hiding my face
In this lonely lonely place
Help me to repair
Things I have done wrong
Help me to find a way
To get where I belong
If you need any help baby
To maybe open your mind
Just give me a call
And I'll be right there on time
Just give me one reason
To stand in your light
And I would stand in your light
Till my night is right
Help me to repair
Things I have done wrong
Help me to find a way
To get where I belong
Oh! To get where I belong
Gonna get where I belong
Morning comes
And the evening follows
Life without you
Knows no tomorrow
You leave me weary
And you leave me tired
But you fill my soul
With strange desire
But I love you babe
Yes I love all of you
Ah! Ah! Ah!
Ah! Ah! Ah! Yeah.
Why don't you feel me
I'll watch your eyes
Gaze into space
Oh! let the sign of love
Go not on your face
You drain my strength
And you run me down
Mm..you got me crawlin'
Crawlin' on the ground
Oh but I love you babe
Oh yeah I love love love you babe
Ah! Ah! Ah!
Ah! Ah! Ah! Yeah.
Every single day, I got a heartache comin' my way
I don’t wanna say goodbye
Baby but look at the tears in my eye
I don’t wanna say goodbye
Mama but look at the way you made me cry
Every way that’s nice
You show you've got a heart that’s made of ice
and I know
Fire and water must have made you their daughter
You've got what it takes, to make a poor man’s heart break
A poor mans heart break
Baby you turn me on
But as quick as a flash your love is gone
Baby I’m gonna leave you now
But I’m gonna try to make you grieve somehow
Fire and water must have made you their daughter
You've got what it takes to make a poor man’s heart break
A poor man’s heart break
And my heart is breakin' too
(ahh yeah)
(alright)
I don’t wanna say goodbye baby
But look at the tears you made me cry
Every way that’s nice
You show you’ve got a heart that’s made of ice
And I know
Fire and water must have made you their daughter
You've got what it takes to make a poor mans heart break
Fire, fire and water must have made you their daughter
Baby you’ve got what it takes to make a poor man’s heart break
Heart break
Baby and my heart is breakin’
ohh my heart is breakin’
Oh...yes..
Some say love is
some say what is love
some say is love
really all around
Some say life is
some say what is life
some say is life
really all around me
but I say easy
easy on my soul
but I say easy
easy on my soul
Some say love is
some say what is love
some say is love
really all around
I want to tell you my story
I want to tell you I'm sorry
easy on my soul...
easy on my soul
Swing your partner dosy-doe
Move to the rhythm of the DJ flow
Go round and around until your feet get hot
Do it to the groove show me what you got
In my mind, what you go about fine
In the mean time it's all the way live
You can't stop moving cause you hear the trance
Give it up, give it up, come on now dance
We're feeling OK
We'll show you the way
Tonight we'll dance the night away
We're feeling OK
We'll show you the way
Tonight we'll dance the night away
No we won't, no we won't, no we won't, no we won't go away
Until we've seen the light of the day
No we won't, no we won't, no we won't go away
Everything you believe stay true
Trouble made, find a way through
To a wonderful land, no living man has gone
But in the end that's the own
With peace and love that will shine on from above
Come to a land where you will resist
(Bundrick)
I was on my way to a needle factory
Up and coming prospects was a waiting there for me
I was selling my wares three bucks a share
Three bucks a share
Three bucks a share
I was walking down, down a rocky road and found
A noisy rising sun and a quietly burning moon
They were standing in line, standing in time
Standing in time waiting for a fantastic time
Standing in line
Like a stallion chasing fear itself
Watching God sit upon his shelf
We were restless, we were restless
We were restless
But we had to keep on going we were restless
I was looking high but I was feeling low
Sun said "Man don't sweat" the moon kept still and
glowed
The truth is in the eyes of common mortal men
And you can believe it's all in the grief of Satan
It's all in the grief of Satan
The truth is in the eye
The truth is in the eye
The truth is in the eye
The truth is in the eye
The truth is in the eye
The truth is in the eye
It makes me sad to think of you
Because I understand the things you do
There is no one else can take your place
In my life alone I hide my face
Come together in the morning
I can understand your mind
Come together in the morning
See the world the same as me
There was a time, it's in the past
I thought our love was born to last
But now you say you are torn in two
That's what my love has done for you
Come together in the morning
I can understand your mind
Come together in the morning
See the world the same as me
Come together in the morning
I can understand your mind
Come together in the morning
See the world the same as me
It makes me sad to think of you
Because I understand the things you do
There is no one else can take your place
Child you're talking of freedom
Painted on your garden wall
It's not there at all
Child you're talking of wisdom
You say wisdom is a golden rule
You ain't no fool
But you don't know who it is
Who calls you name
In the light of the golden moon
You don't know who it is who brought you here
And chained up your heart
So soon
Child you're life is a fairytale
And it's not the same
And the clouds
You're hiding behind
In your misty mind have disappeared
Like a sailor far from the shores of your dreams
And far from the love of your home
Sailor lost on your own misty seas
And the chains on your heart, baby
Might be my love
Might be my love
It's so confusing
And you feel that you're loosing yourself
But, there over the mountain
You thought you'd never have to climb
There's a road
Reaching and stretching
To the corner of your mind
Like a river casts aside the dust
And grows and grows as it flows
The feeling deep inside of you
Must break like a dam
So set you free
So set you free
Catch a train to my place
Call me when you get into town babe
I'm gonna meet you at the station, oh yeah
You can tell me why you're feeling down
Is it you mother, though she tends to shout a bit
But she's got her problems too and I just don't doubt it
Baby your father, I know he's always drinking
Most of the time he don't even know what he's doing
Now baby catch a train to my place
Call me when you get into town, yeah
Gonna meet you at the station
You can tell me why you're feeling down
I can't imagine
Why you're feeling so alone
It's just a week since I saw
Baby why are you crying so?
All you got to do is catch a train to my place
Call me when you get into town
I'm gonna meet you at the station, oh
You can tell me why you're feeling down
Baby, baby catch a train to my place, yeah
Call me when you get into town
I'm gonna meet you at the station, oh
You can tell me why you're feeling
Ah baby why you're feeling down?
Down, down, down, down
Why don't you come around?
Why don't you catch a train?
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Broad daylight.
See the smoke fills my room
Curl and whisper in the gloom
Then I long for the day
When the sun comes out to say
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Broad daylight.
Now the clock says it's time for bed
Time for sleep the moon just said
Time for tears in your dreams
Will the tears all disappear come
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Broad daylight
Let me feel the morning
Right from the sky we are born crazy
Right from the sky we are born to be wild
Right from the sky we are born crazy
Right from the sky we are born to be alive
Day by day same old story
Same old life starts to get boring
Always working, always strained
Gotta be quick cause I can't be late
Always moving in one direction
Searching for this thing .............
Can't get lost, gotta be on the track
When you move ahead you can never look back
Then time is come when you gotta break free
To make the choice to be wild, to be happy
How fun. And don't let your mind go flat
That's it... and that is what is said
Grab it, taste it, hold it, make it
Don't think about the chance, just take it
Life is short, no time to be lazy
Get on your feet, it's time to get crazy
Don't walk like that, we walk like this
Break the rules, I know you won't miss
Just be crazy, just be wild
Just be free like an innocent child
Show the world, you don't give a damn
Don't let society ruin your plans
Don't be afraid to say what you feel
Take a little break, forget that it's real
Let the masses go their own way
You go your way, I'll go my way
Let your mind control your movement
Who cares that there's no room for improvement
Jump, shout, dance, scream
Activate you act in your dreams
Remember this when it all seems hazy
Bodie came from the hills
To see the world
Looking for different thrills
He found a girl
Showed him the city sights
Opened his eyes wide
No he finds
Bodie had changed his mind
Changed his mind
Came from the heart of town
She was no fool
Keeping him hanging around
She played it cool
Showed him the good life
And made herself his wife
Now he finds
Bodie had changed his mind
Changed his mind
I did not come
Just to lose my way
Things I've done there anyway
Bodie came from the hills
To see the world
Looking for different thrills
He found his girl
Showed him the good life
And made herself his wife
Now he finds
Bodie has changed his mind
All I need is a friend
Some one to give a helpin' hand
When I'm afraid in the night
Someone to squeeze me
And tell me it's alright
You know I worry such a lot
And I would give all I've got
Just to do have someone believe in me
Just to do that and put me
Back on evenly.
Baby, baby, be my friend
Baby, baby, be my friend
Baby, baby, be my friend
I will love you till the end.
You make me feel
A stronger love than anyone
I've ever know
Oh, I need someone like you
You give me something so strong and true
Oh, Baby, baby, be my friend
Baby, baby, be my friend
Baby, baby, be my friend
I will love you till the end.
Want you Baby, baby, baby be my friend
I will love you I will love you till the very end
Baby, baby, baby, baby be my friend
I will love you
I will love you till the very end.
Baby baby be my friend
I believe
if you give
a little bit of love
to those you live with
a little bit of love
Oh oh oh

Well in my mind
it's easy
to lose sight of the truth
but in my heart
I can't deny
my feeling inside
'cause I believe
if you give
a little bit of love
to those you live with
a little bit of love
Oh oh oh
has gotta come your way.
Man in the sky

to lose sight of the world
you want to stay high
then don't deny
your feeling inside
'cause I believe
if you give
a little bit of love
to those you live with
a little bit of love
Oh oh oh
has gotta come your way.
Yeahh!
Whooo!

to those you live with
a little bit of love
has gotta come your way.
I believe
if you give
a little bit of love
to those you live with
a little bit of love
Whooooo
I can break your chains
Crack your cage apart
I can tear your walls down
With the beating of my heart
And if you said I have no choice
I would tell you, you're a liar
I'm not afraid to
Chuck this frying pan into your fire
I'm a million miles high
I'm a piece of the sky
Well I'm the purple in the rainbow, my my my
I'm like wind in your hair
I'm like the rain on the sea
'Cause I'm free, I'm free, I'm free, oh
Oh, you can't keep me down
Put me in your place
I will never wear your 20th century
Pacemaker face, yeah
You will never bleed
The spirit out of me
I'm flesh and blood, I'm real
I'm not your factory fantasy, no not me
I'm a million miles high
I'm a piece of the sky
Well I'm the purple in the rainbow, my my my
I'm like wind in your hair
I'm like the rain on the sea
I'm free, I'm free, I'm free, yeah
Well, you can't keep me down
Put me in your place
I will never wear your 20th century
Pacemaker face, yeah
You will never bleed
The spirit out of me, no
I'm flesh and blood, I'm real
I'm not your factory fantasy, no not me
I'm a million miles high
I'm a piece of the sky
Well, I'm the purple in the rainbow, my my my
I'm like wind in your hair
I'm like rain on the sea
Well, I'm free, I'm free, I'm free
I'm a million miles high
I'm a piece of the sky
The purple in the rainbow, my my my
I'm like wind in your hair
I'm like the rain on the sea
Never to breakdown never to fall we won't keep living with our backs agains the wall you say we're so ignorant but you can't see what might be right for you is not always good for me. All I wann know will we ever be free. Me loving you you loving me. You bring us to the groiund in a system built ofr fools then mastered the politricks. That kept us in your schools. You taught us anger by never showing love. Now I hope you never find out what we've been dreamin of. Never to breakdwon never to fall. We don't keep loving with our backs agians the wall. You say we're so ignorant but I can't agree cause I know what's right for you could never be right for me.
There's a special way you touch me
In the morning when I'm waking up
You know just how to put the pieces back together
When it looks like we're breaking up
When my world is upside down
You know just how to turn it around
[Chorus:]
And that's why this angel loves ya
I'm gonna love the devil out of ya
Show us a star shine above ya this angel
She's gonna love ya
I'm gonna love the devil out of ya
All night long
And if the sun comes up too soon
I'm gonna bring you back the moon
There's a part of me that no one ever knew
You somehow found
And that's the part of me that's always missing
When you're not around
You opened up my eyes and made me see
There's so much good inside of me
[Chorus x2]
I keep walking down the same city streets
The same city lines, to the same lonely beat
People say, ?Hello?, but I don't know what to say
I don't know how I feel, I just can't act that way
I wanna hide from all these strangers
I wanna run home to you
All I need is your compassion, yes
We can be free, yes, I wanna be free, yes
I wanna be free, yes, I wanna be free
Oh, the way I'm shut out by your silence
It's the loudest thing I've ever known
You leave me, leave me hanging
'Til I feel useless with my hope
Oh, it's lonely in the city, it can be lonely next to you
And just have the courage to open up yourself
Then we can be free, yes, I wanna be free, yes
I wanna be free, yes, I wanna be free
I just, I wanna be free, oh, I wanna be free, yes, I wanna be free
Oh, it's lonely in the city, it can be lonely next to you
And just have the courage to open up yourself
Then we can be free, yes, I wanna be free, yes
I wanna be free, yes, I wanna be free
I just, I wanna be free, oh, I wanna be free
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, I wanna be free, yes
I wanna be free, I just, I wanna be free, yes
I'm a poor, I'm a rich
I'm a mountain and a ditch
I'm a dagger and a shield
I'm impatient, I'm a yield
And I wanna be free, wind in my hair
Salt on my skin, sun in the air
I have to feel love holding on me
I'll give you everything that you would ever need
I'm the fight and the dance
I am heartbreak and romance
The feather and the stone
I feel crowded and alone
And I wanna be free, wind in my hair
Salt on my skin, sun in the air
I have to feel love holding on me
I'll give you everything that you would ever need
And every once in a while I wanna sit back and enjoy the view
I'm feeling my senses
But woman my life has been surrounded by fences
But I found some that I could see through, I could see through
And I wanna be free, wind in my hair
Salt on my skin, sun in the air
I have to feel love holding on me
I'll give you everything that you would ever need
Everything that you would ever need
Yeah I know, I know, I know I've been bad
I know I lied and I cheated in the past
But I ain't capable of doing such wrong
That justifies me being locked up this long
I ain't guilty of no crime
Get these chains off me
Can't risk doing no more time
Please just set me free
Everyday I go on
I feel my heart getting colder
I'm beggin' you please
Yeah, yeah
You got me wrong
I don't deserve this fate
I'm not where I belong
Not the kind of place
Once he's mad at your fear
I ain't meant to be here
I'm meant to be free
Yeah I know, I know, I know I've been a fool
I had everything and went and lost it all
But I don't deserve this sentence on my head
Especially when I never did what she said
I ain't guilty of no crime
Get these chains off me
Can't risk doing no more time
Please just set me free
Everyday I go on
I feel my heart getting colder
I'm beggin' you please
Yeah, yeah
You got me wrong
I don't deserve this fate
I'm not where I belong
Not the kind of place
Once he's mad at your fear
I ain't meant to be here
I'm meant to be free
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Time's such a precious thing
We shouldn't waste it on little things
Effect me won't get in the way
Of what we need 'cause it just don't pay
I ain't guilty of no crime
Get these chains off me
Can't risk doing no more time
Please just set me free
Everyday I go on
I feel my heart getting colder
I'm beggin' you please
Yeah, yeah
You got me wrong
I don't deserve this fate
I'm not where I belong
Not the kind of place
Once he's mad at your fear
I ain't meant to be here
I'm meant to be free
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm meant to be free
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm meant to be free
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Chorus intro:
Free to live free to love, free to get up
Free to get out and get up and move on, I’m
Free to live free to love free to get up
Free to get out and get up and move on
From all the pain, all the times, I ever cried
For those who spoke lies I’m gonna make it
From all the days, all the rage I felt inside
I know I’m still alive not forsaken
Verse I
I used to want it so bad, I was so mad
Why can’t I have a life like he has, autographs
Record tracks tour the globe and rap
It was a dream that seemed out of my grasp or wouldn’t last
Months passed, spent cash, all that I had
Had to borrow just to stay at my pad, and no gas
When dreams turn bitter and I know I’m not a quitter
I repaint the picture and start with something clearer
I know what it’s like yo, to work so hard, watch it fall apart
After leaving your job
God’s got your back it’s free at no charge
Speak I’m free and believe with your heart
Chorus:
Free to live free to love, free to get up
Free to get out and get up and move on, I’m
Free to live free to love free to get up
Free to get out and get up and move on
From all the pain, all the times, I ever cried
For those who spoke lies I’m gonna make it
From all the days, all the rage I felt inside
I know I’m still alive not forsaken
Verse II
My road was long I choked and coughed
I froze and lost, I brushed it off
I wrote to God, Hear me
I got a problem here, can’t you see I’m sinking
I’m shrinking, I’m tripping, slipping, searching for some wisdom
Since time is ticking I’ve been thinking I’m a sleeping victim
Incline my ear listen I was blind I’m here to switch it
This is when I call to you I’m crawling balling out
Falling up to walk with you I’m here to put it down
Anything I don’t know, download to my soul
Let me be free so I can free those in pot wholes
Let me sleep breezy like the beaches in Taho
Helped me see clearly you perform the impossible
Chorus Repeats
Verse III
I’ve been on and off, searching for a better job
Hip hop gave me an out let to set it off
My God saves I’m free to just sing a song
I walk straight to goals as if my team won
Like the pentagon free to drop a bigger bomb
Figured my sisters and brothers they need a leader son
Teeter tottered not wanting to bother
Children need a father not just payment with dollars
Home of the brave were known to rescue and save
In a moment we change, we can’t settle for slave
Hold to the dream go big or go home
Freedoms in the heart mind, body & soul
As the dragon cuts the waves
Strong winds take us east
Like the wings of a beast
Salt on my lips again
I put my face in the wind
Let the saga begin
Heading where brave have travelled
What eyes have never seen
Miklagard we're on our way
Where few have ever been
Danger, toil and trouble
Death may lie ahead
But I'd rather die in glory
Than fade away in bed
Free, so free
The waves of the sea
The taste of the wind
Urging us on and the saga begins
Free, so free
In the storm you will see
Holding on with a grin
Odin with us let the saga begin
From Dorestadt in franconia
The best swords that are made
In gold they be weighted
Amber from Haithabu
The gold of our shore
We got plenty in store
We'll sell on eastern markets
And silken cloth we will buy
Spices, glass and jewellery
Of pleasure to the eye
There is a fortune waiting
For Those who choose this way
A saga to be written
Angels with dirty faces,
Darkness begins to take me tonight
Good friends, bad habits,
In the end we're all tragic,
So why?
I can't go on like this forever
So I started to run, I put down the gun
Oh, I'm learning to be free
Looked up at the sky, started to fly,
It feels better to be me
And you can't take nothing from me,
Cause I'm free
Wake up and move forward,
Shake off that cold shoulder tonight,
Relapse you're walking backwards,
Just relax forget your problems tonight
No, I can't go on like this forever
So I started to run, I put down the gun
Oh, I'm learning to be free
Looked up at the sky, started to fly,
It feels better to be me,
No, you can't take nothing from me,
Cause I'm free
And I breathe,
So the change is up to you
To be free and release,
All the shit you used to do
I can't go on like this forever
So I started to run, I put down the gun
Oh, I'm learning to be free
Looked up at the sky, started to fly,
It feels better to be me,
I started to run, I put down the gun
Oh, I'm learning to be free
Looked up at the sky, started to fly,
It feels better to be me,
No, you can't take nothing from me
You come around
You're feeling down
She left you on your own
Without a sound
Your eyes
They lead me
Into the dangerzone
I know I do
Just what you're up to
I know you by heart
And I know what you'll do to me
I know you by heart
And you know that it's killing me
To see you now
You come and go
Don't wanna know
What's really inside of me
The way I feel
Is no big deal - to you - but it is to me
I gave to you everything I had
I know you by heart
I know what you'll do to me
I know you by heart
And you know that it's killing me
To see you now
There ain't no future in yesterday
I should just turn, and run away
But when you look at me that way
It makes me wanna let you stay
What can I say
I know you by heart
I know what you'll do to me
I know who you are
And you know
It's killing me
To see you now
You thought you had me all tied up in a little knot
You thought I'd go on living just
Like you like you until you asked me nicely to stop
But suprise
I'm free,
I'm free,
I'm Free
To be the girl you tried to steal
You thought I'd freeze outwithered and abandoned
Now you know differently that
I'm gonna live much more than you ever imagined
So suprise
I'm free
I'm free
I'm free
To be the girl you tried to steal
To be the girl you tried to steal from me
It isn't every day
Someone sets you free
And gives you walking papers
To be the real thing
I'm free
I'm free
I'm free
To be the girl you tried to steal
I'm free
I'm free, yea
I'm free
To be the girl you tried to steal
I`ve been walking around all day, thinking
I think i have a problem, I think I think too much
I`ve been tought to hold back my tears and avoid them
But you`ve made pain into something I could touch
I`ve been walking around all day, laughing
Think I`d be better off without you here
And I bet you are sweet and hard to get over
So I`ll cry and people will stop and stare
Now thats ok, let them stop and stare...
Cause I am fragile
I am hopeless
I'm not perfect
But I am free...
I`ve been walking around all day, waiting
And waiting is all I seem to do
´cause I never get it unless I`m fed it
But this time I'll just have to
Yeah this time I'll just have to...
And I am fragile
I am hopeless
I'm not perfect
But I am free...
Say you're not around... am I finished?
If you`re not around that's too bad
Hope you´re safe and sound, not alone now
´cause you know I belive in you...
I am so fragile
I am so hopeless
I'm not perfect
But I am free...
And I am fragile
I am hopeless
I'm not perfect
But I am free...
Cause I am fragile
I am hopeless
I'm not perfect
Everybody need something to believe in
Everybody need something to put their trust in
Some with luck, put their faith in love
Some show off and let the money talk
Some look up, read the stars above
Some believe in making dead man walk
Another year and another week, another day
Time keeps running and everything will be okay
Everybody need something to believe in
Everybody need something to put their trust in
Free...believe in what you want
Free...believe in what you want
Some might say it's a miracle
Some might call it the destiny
Some let God, lead them all the way
Some would say they believe in me
Another year and another week, another day
Lord it's so hard livin this life;
A constant struggle each and every day.
Some wonder why
I'd rather die
Than to continue livin this way.
Many are blind
and cannot find the truth cuz no one seems to really know.
But I won't accept that this is how it's gonna be.
Devil you got to let me and my people go.
Cuz I wanna be free-
Completely free.
Lord won't you please come and save me.
Cuz I wanna be free-
Totally free.
If I knew what I wanted, I just don't have the time
I wanna ride my motorcycle into the sunshine
My TV's laughin', making me feel small
Like I'm sad in a cell, all I see is these walls
And I never wanna see another shopping mall
Oh free to be what I will
Oh free, I'll keep it up 'till I'm free or I won't have nothing at all
This is my life, believing it, I will pay
But why should I care about all that today?
I need a head start and I don't wanna stall
Gonna take a bulldozer to break down the walls
And I never wanna see another shopping mall
Oh free to be what I will
Oh Free, I'll keep it up 'till I'm free or I won't have nothing at all
Once we get out off the eighties, the nineties are gonna make the sixties look like the fifties
Oh free to be what I will
Oh free, I'll keep it up 'till I'm free or I won't have nothing at all
Oh free to be what I will
Oh free, I'll keep it up 'till I'm free or I won't have nothing at all
Take a breather angel
Gather up your thoughts and fears
As you sit there in that room
Be sure that justice will be done
But only if you believe
Every second, every minute
Just gets harder to hold on to your sanity
(ooo)
But as you sit there on that floor
Be sure that other angels have flown away
Till they're...
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
For a lifetime angel
You must live with the reality
(you must live with it yeah)
As you grasp your knees into your chest
Be sure that heaven is out there
Holding on is the hardest thing to do
When you're hanging by your veins
As you wait there for the verdict
Only the truth will deliver
Till they're...
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
(can you believe
this is our fate
can you understand
can you keep it together
can you believe
this is our fate
can you understand)
Friends till the end
Till they're...
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
Till they're...
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
Till they're...
Free
You say "get these chains... chains... off of me"
(free
you say "get these chains... chains... off of me")
(Violin playing)
So we live out of our old van
Travel all across this land
Me and you
We'll end up hand in hand
Somewhere down on the sand
Just Me and you
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Drive until the city lights
Dissolve into a country sky
Just Me and you
Lay underneath the HARVEST moon
Do all the things that lovers do
Just me and you
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
And Ever be
No we don't have a lot of money
(Repeat 7 times)
All we need is love
Were Free as we'll ever be
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Ever be
So we live in our old van
Travel all across this land

i thought i was the only one
and you wait all the way til now to tell me?

and you made me, trust you, again
no i take that back, cause i never really trusted you
i just did what i had to do, cause i loved you (and)
remember whispers in my ear, tellin' me to have no fear
cause nobody else lives here
but it was all a lie (lie) you know the time (time)
(june)
ever since you told me, i won't tell you how it's been
don't talk to nobody, not even my friends
i can't sleep, and i don't even clean
i ain't had a good meal, this is how you make me feel, when your not here
it's like you locked me up and threw away the key
and everywhere i turn it's like four walls are surrounding me
and they movin' in slowly, i'm so lonely
feels like i'm in some kind of prison
and i wanna be free (free) so come back to me
now i know this might sound hard to believe
cause i'm famous all up on MTV
but you don't even know the half, no i don't barely laugh
all the girls surround me, but i don't even know the last time i got some ass
and it ain't cause i can't get it, it's just cause i don't want it
everytime i think about sex
all i think about is you moanin' and some man
fuckin' my name, tatted between your legs?
image burned in my head
and it's killin' me baby, it's drivin' me crazy
ever since you told me, i won't tell you how it's been, no
don't talk to nobody, not even my friends
i can't sleep, and i don't even clean
i ain't had a good meal, this is how you make me feel, when your not here
it's like you locked me up and threw away the key
and everywhere i turn its like four walls are surrounding me

[Verse 1:]
Heaven presents another smash hit for Jesus,
That keeps you rockin' when we're dropping phat masterpieces
I pray you seek this great God you should get to know Him,
And if you do make it known so your set can know Him
We spit to show Him in all of His splendor
And to share His matchless love that made me surrender
See we celebrate the Father who would send His Son
Because according to the text I was a wretch undone
Lord, I was lost in sin and lovin' my ways
Til You came to my rescue like government aid
Sin had me in a trial just like a subpoena,
And in Your court I couldn't stand like a leg without the femur
So now instead of Judge Lord, I know You as Redeemer,
You're sovereign even if there was a Hurricane Katrina
You saved men and You placed them in the prints of your feet
The Prince of Peace with nail prints that proves I'm free
[Hook:]
Oh, I'm free, I've never known a love like Yours before, and now
I'm free, I've never known a life with peace and security
But Your love restores, and breaks down the doors
You looked passed me and saw my needs, and set me free, I'm free
[Verse 2:]
I was bound to the Law, like a husband to a wife,
There were standards I couldn't keep, it's like I cheated every night
Which made sin prevalent, bringin' death to life
And provided me with the evidence we're in a losing fight
And like marriage, only death severs ties to the Law,
Knowing this Jesus stepped in and provided for your boy
He lived a perfect life fulfilling standards and perfection
And gave men grace through His death and Resurrection
Now if we'd only take turn for the better and realize
That the cravings of the flesh will never let up
Then we see that cheddar in the possession of our mortal eyes hail
When compared to the One immortalized
So now thanks to Christ I'm not an orphan like Annie
Because God adopted me and made me part of His family
Me and God are reunited and it feels so good,
I praise God for the day that Keynon brought me good news
[Hook:]
Oh, I'm free, I've never known a love like Yours before, and now
I'm free, I've never known a life with peace and security
But Your love restores, and breaks down the doors
You looked passed me and saw my needs, and set me free, I'm free
[Verse 3:]
We see ordinary people getting lifted by John Legend,
But this is when we get excited writing about John's legend
John 1: 14 meet the Word in the flesh,
Christ perfect in His person placing burdens to rest
But I'm free, no condemnation for me
Because I'm crucified with Christ, plus His love delivered me
God loved us enough that He would give His only kid,
Jesus came to live the perfect life that none of us could live, and I'm free
[Vamp:]
There was a time when my heart was on the line
All of my hope was gone and my soul was out of time
But Your love restores and breaks down the doors
You looked passed me and saw my needs, and now I can say, I'm free
[Hook:]
Oh, I'm free, I've never known a love like Yours before, and now
I'm free, I've never known a life with peace and security
But Your love restores, and breaks down the doors
I fell asleep in the silence
Before the stream fights the fire
Free in the world that you've given
Lay in the sand, the water still calls
Still calls
Afraid of the dark that surrounds me
Hide in the dirt of the ground
Free of the wind that surrounds me
I'm not afraid to sleep in the night
Not afraid to sleep in the night
Free like a bird of the holders
Holdin the weight of the sun
I know the road that you've sent me
I know the way it's to one
Real like the bones in my body
Real like the flesh that covers the brain
It's real like the flesh that covers the brain
Wait for the cards that you've sent me
Before I will show you myself
Wait for the storm that comes to me
Maybe I'll just change my mind
Plea for the will of forgiveness
I'm not afraid to say I was wrong
I was wrong
Maybe I was so wrong
(Nathan Watts, Jane Williams, Susaye Greene, Henry Red)
Ooh, I want to be free
I wanna be free

Whispering in his ear
My magic potion for love
Telling him I'm sincere
And there's nothing too good for us
I wanna be free
Free, free
(And I just got to be me)
I gotta be me baby
Me, oh me, free
Chasing is on his mind

Gonna tell the world what he did for me
Don't worry
Don't cry
That's a voice I hear inside
But it's hard for me to see
Tomorrow's but a dream
'Cause today's reality is right in front of me
They say you'll never make
They say you can never change it
What you are is what you'll always be
They say that I should give up
Once you're down you'll never get up
But that's not the truth for me
Who the son sets free
You best believe it's free indeed
Wanna take it to the streets
My Lord Delivered me

You best believe it's free indeed
Wanna dance and shout and scream

Then I thought I'd never make
Then you can along and then you changed it
Made a way somehow and brought me through
As I was just about to give up
You took me hand said baby get up
Now here I am because of you
Stand beause of you!

It's time to luagh,it's time to cry
It's time to be what u need to be
It wont be long 'til they r gone
And we can be what we want to be
I'm gonna run from everything
Everything that holds me down
Nothing to win, nothing to lose
You can't tell me what to do anymore
You can't tell me what to do anymore
Now I'm free, Now I'm free, Now I'm free
I'm gonna run, I'm gonna win
I'm gonna do what I need to do
'cause it's time to be what I need to be
You can't tell me what to do anymore
You can't tell me what to do anymore
Now I'm free, Now I'm free, Now I'm free
I want hold air in my hand
Own the one thing u can't buy
Nothing to win, nothing to lose
I'm gonna run from everything
Everything that holds me down
Nothing to win, nothing to lose
It's time to be what I need to be
You can't tell me what to do anymore
You can't tell me what to do anymore
Now I'm free, Now I'm free, Now I'm free
I feel like the weight of the world is all
Crashing down on me
And some how I just don?t believe this how
It is suppose to be
And all this expectation on
The way I?m suppose to live
Becomes my minds distraction
With nothing left to give
You said your burden is light
And your load is no more
You said your ways are right
And in you I will soar
I want to be free
Free to dance and free to sing
Free to live and love and free
Oh, free to be me
I feel like my heart is being beat
Down into the ground
In you I?m longing for some peace
To be found
I know the heaviness that?s
Making me cold
Is stealing my youthful soul and
Making me old
You said your burden is light
And your load is no more
You said your ways are right
And in you I will soar
I want to be free
Free to dance and free to sing
Free to live and love and free
Oh, free to be me
I want to be free, yeah
Free to dance and free to sing
Free to live and love and free
Oh, free to be me
Wanna be free
Free to dance and free to sing
Free to live and love
And free to be me
Wanna be free, yeah
Free to dance and free to sing
Free to live and love and free
Here's the palm of my hand for a life to see
Here's the thunder-rage as a part of me
Here's the beat of my heart
Here's my reason for asking
Sometimes when the sky falls down on me
When the lightning flash leaves a stain in me
I feel the beat of my heart
It's my reason for asking
Yeah....
Sunrise on a worldwide boulevard
New dice on the edge of a brand new start
Every day is a day
Is a reason for asking
One step for the freefall ride in you
One dive into the dark, deep sea of truth
No one knows where to go
So you might as well take it
Till it feels so real
And you're free
Time flies as the world walks out on you
Toss, turn, it's the catch in 22
Don't you know, don't you know
There's a reason for asking
Sometimes when your head caves in with doubt
You feel like a fool with no way out
Feel the beat of your heart
It's the reason for asking
Until it feels so real
Till your mind reveals
Until it feels so real
And you're free
Until your heart cries out
Until there's no way out
Till it feels so real
And you're free
Reach out when your heart screams out to you
It's the quest for a lifetime search in you
Put the pace into place
There's a reason for asking
Sometimes when the worst is all you see
You're as free as you'd thought you'd ever be
No one knows where to go, so you might as well taste it
Until you feel so real
Till your mind reveals
Until you feel so real
And you're free
Until your heart cries out
Until there's no way out
Till it feels so real
And you're free
It's beyond me the differences in our minds in my head it's just as plain
as day to be free free of hate, peace of mind exorcise the demons that can
leave you blind
What I want, liberate from the things that bring you down free your self
and all around what I see see neausiates eats the life inside of me kills
the life inside of me
Hatred venom seeping through your veins question everything I know is true
vengence downward spiral never ends unity for what reasons, never know
What I want, liberate from the things that bring you down free your self
and all around what I see see neausiates eats the life inside of me kills
the life inside of me
Choose sides why must it be this way answer fear of the unknown decide
where do you draw the line? our pride pride in the human race
What I want, liberate from the things that bring you down free your self
and all around what I see see neausiates eats the life inside of me kills
the life inside of me to be free
Overcome false boundaries built to keep us far apart drilled from when we
were very young into what we think is true strength in us to push aside
walls in which we'll never stay time for us to pool our pride and unify
our brotherhood
To be free
Free
You can clip my wings, shackle and chain me
Back straight standing tall a child of God, N' I'm... Free!
Spit in my face, hold me down
I'ma keep my feet firm to the ground, cuz I'm... Free!
Your A&R;'s a house nigga, the labels the plantation
Now switch that advance for your emancipation
MC's are the field like pick cotton for real
I pop blocks like beat street with a notch n' a kill
They take the strongest of slaves to compete in a track meat
For the King of the city sang songs of back streets
Choruses of cocaine tales and black heat
Only to trade niggas like professional athletes!
Don't take that merchandising, snatch that publishing
Practice that black ass, ship you to London
By way of France, Germany, Dublin
A railroad to underground like Harriet Tubman
While ya'll stay strugglin' we smuggle MC's through the streets
Till we bubblin' on mix CD's, hustlin'
Clans see me on the block n' say freeze
I say Fuck You! I'm a man, I'm Free!
You can clip my wings, shackle and chain me
Back straight standing tall a child of God, N' I'm... Free!
Spit in my face, hold me down
I'ma keep my feet firm to the ground, cuz I'm... Free!
I give birth to verses in churches with no confession
So please pardon my post-partum depression
A-list MC to spit it in C-Sections
For immature minds that get it with each lesson
Three-fifths of a man ass jigga with no plans
How you discussing publishing figures without a band
They got digital codes on our music for them to scan
So even when you sample a snare you can't even clan
So google Pharoahe Monch, search Triskaidekaphobia
I'll explain why these city banks Wachovia
I'll peep the future in my sleep, to be honest man
We never had a mutual relationship with Washington
Why? Because I believe they put the virus in the latex
Condoms that they sell us, call it safe sex
What I spit, not only causes a glitch in The Matrix
But another terrorist that they haven't faced yet!
You can clip my wings, shackle and chain me
Back straight standing tall a child of God, N' I'm... Free!
Spit in my face, hold me down
Old man skinny got a little frustrated
Raised his glass and said to me
Sometimes my days seem like they're wasted
But tonight I know -
I'm free
I'm free
Come on flap your wings
Come on flap your wings
Old Indie Hindy he's a real high stepper
Calls me up late on the phone
He says "I'm doing my best just to keep it together
With my angels at home"
I'm free (underneath the stars of heaven)
I'm free (all the bells are ringing eleven)
I'm free (Polar Boy is loose and living)
Gonna flap my wings (drivin fast his world keeps spinnin around)
Come on flap your wings
He raised his glass and said to me
I'm free (underneath the stars of heaven)
I'm free (all the bells are ringing eleven)
I'm free (Polar Boy is loose and living)
Gonna flap my wings (drivin fast his world keeps spinnin around)
Come on flap your wings
Keep spinnin around
Come on flap your wings
Keep spinnin around
Come on flap your wings
Keep spinnin around
In the morning she is waking
With the gold dust in her hair
She is beauty, oh slightly broken
But I love her laying there
Spanish lady, treat her kindly
Feel her warm tenderness
Like Arkansas skies on the Fourth of July
She is painted on the night
And I'm free, free
Free, thank God I'm free
In the morning she is waking
With the gold dust in her hair
She is beauty, oh for just a token
But I can't evade her morning stare
And I'm free, free
Free, thank God I'm free
Won't you please walk down to edit time with me?
What would you say if I told you about
A love too good to be real
would you reply that you've heard it a million times
Oh, You throw up your hands-never understand
Turn and walk away cry another tear
I know where your're coming from
I was Searching for the road that would lead me home
Where I'm free
Free to believe what is real to me
Free-free to believe that he lives in me
La La La...La La La free
How would you feel if love fell in your arms
With the tenderness of a child
Would you be able to finally open your eyes
A love so strong it nevers begs-never borrows
Never steals from anyone
Even if I bend even if I sway even if I lose my way
I will always come home
Where I'm free
Free to believe what is real to me
Free-free to believe that he lives in me
La La La...La La La free
Free to love-free to dance-free to live your life with open
Hands thatreach for the way-closer to the edge youre hear the
Music play awaking all that once was slumbering's alive again
Cause I'm free...
Where I'm free
Free to believe what is real to me
Free-free to believe that he lives in me
La La La...La La La free
Free like a bird
Crossing the sky
Just a dream
I want to be free
Just want to be free
I'm burning because of you
My light like fire
Without the flame
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
Please let me be free
Please let me be me
Can you forgive me
'Cause I can't
Crucified myself
And 'cause I destroyed all this
Free
Feels a lot better that I thought it would
Free
Never knew it felt so good to be
Free to do what I wanna do
So I'm getting out on the town tonight
Gonna say good bye to you
Get on back to feeling right
Time for me to be cutting loose
Getting out of that noose, you had on me
Free
Feels a lot better that I thought it would
Free
Never knew it felt so good
Free to think what I wanna think
Free to come up with my own plan
I'm gonna get myself a big ol' drink
Celebrate being my own man
Hanging out in this redneck bar
It's all good as far as I can see
Free
Feels a lot better than I thought it would
Free
Never knew it felt so good to be
I've been wrapped up tied down
Been lost but I found
I'm the kind of man that needs to be free
Free
Feels a lot better than I thought it would
Free
Never knew it felt so good to be free
Free like a river
Flowing freely through infinity
Free to be sure of
What I am and who I need not be
Free from all worries
Worries pray on oneself´s troubled mind
Freer than the clock´s hands, ticking ´way the times
Freer than the meaning of free that man defines
Life running through me
´Till I feel my Father God has called
Free to be nowhere
But every place I need to be
Freer than the sunbeam shining through my soul
Free from feeling heat or knowing bitter cold
I´m free like a vision
That the mind of only you can see
Freer than the raindrop falling from the sky
Freer than a smile in a baby´s sleeping eye
I´m free like a river
Flowing freely through infinity
Free to be sure of
What I am and who I need not be
Free like a river, I'm free (7x)
My soul is free
Free like a river
Free, Free, Free as a bird I'm flying
Can't you see I'm alive
Shooting up in the sky together
Best days of our lives!
Free, Free, Free as a bird I'm flying
Can't you see I'm alive
Floating up on a dream together
Best times of our lives
Move To The Sound!
Free, Free, Free as a bird I'm flying
Can't you see I'm alive
Shooting up in the sky together
Best days of our lives!
Free, Free, Free as a bird I'm flying
Can't you see I'm alive
Floating up on a dream together
Best times of our lives
Like This!
Free, Free, Free as a bird I'm flying
Can't you see I'm alive
Shooting up in the sky together
Best days of our lives!
Free, Free, Free as a bird I'm flying
Can't you see I'm alive
Floating up on a dream together
Best times of our lives
I took a risk against all odds
Had to be strong all on my own
Overcome with many ideas and fears
What should I do to carry on (carry on)?
I've got to hold on (hold on)
Be strong, yeah
Which path should I choose
Still more to walk
No matter what I'll be okay (be okay)
Cause through mistakes will carry me*
Oh decisions don't come easily for me
But now I'm free, and I'm happy
I've got to hold on (hold on)
Be strong, yeah
Which path should I choose
Still more to walk
Cause I'm free to have a voice
To use it any way I choose
Culminating past my dreams
I've made them my reality
Cause I'm free to have a voice
To use it any way I choose
Culminating past my dreams
I've made them my reality
There's no such thing as the next level
Just a continuation of movement and energy
Building bridges and climbing horizons
On a journey never ended, only to begin
Cause in the real world
Nothing is what it seems
And everything is a fantasy ready to be lived
Ready to be loved
Because in the end we are all one of the same kind
I've got to hold on (hold on)
Be strong, yeah
Which path should I choose
Still more to walk
Cause I'm free to have a voice
To use it any way I choose
Culminating past my dreams
I've made them my reality
Cause I'm free to have a voice
To use it any way I choose
Culminating past my dreams
I've made them my reality
Honey, stop your lies
You ain't got to lie no more
Sugar, stop your cheating
You ain't got to cheat no more
'Cause the lowdown dirty things
You do at night
At last it come to the light
And I can see clearly now
Take off your mask, baby
I can see straight through your soul
And what I see was a doggone thing
I can't understand why I didn't see it before
You misused my love for so long
You throw me love like you throw a dog a bone
And that's why the name of this song is called
Free, glad I got over you
I wanna say that one more time
For the benefit of those who didn't hear me
I said I'm free, free, I'm glad I gotten over you
Listen to me
When you do me like you do me
Tell me what else can a poor boy do?
I want you listen to this
Let the four winds blow
Let them blow [Incomprehensible]
If you turn I'd be your sweet angel tomorrow
Loving you I just couldn't see, guess why
You misused my love for so long
You throw me love like you're throwing a old dog of bone
It's one thing I wanna explain about that bone
You gave away the steak and you know that's wrong
Even dogs get tired and he will bury that bone
I said I'm free, I'm over you
I'm free and I'm over you
Listen to it
Sitting at home alone
By the rain is falling
Looking at the phone, baby
But you never, never call me
I gotta tell, free, baby, free baby, yes, I am
And I'm over you, I'm gonna say one more time
Free, oh, oh, honey, thank God I'm free at last, baby
And you don't worry me, I told you a long time ago
Carry on, you won't miss me when I'm gone
Won't hear the phone ring
You won't hear me sing
Yeah I'm guilty, guilty of everything
I'll run away
Cause I've gotta find a place where you won't know me
I wanna go so far
Oh I'm guilty, guilty of every charge
Throw away the horoscopes
And don't you ever give up hope
Without me, you will be...
Free, without me
You're free, without me
Settle down
And keep your feet touching the ground
You will be okay
You will see better days
Just watch me
Watch yourself fade away
I love your mind
I love your routine, daily grind
All the words you say
Oh your every day
Just watch me
You'll see I'm gone away
Oh throw away the horoscopes
And don't you ever give up hope
Without me, you will be...
Free, without me
You're free
Free, without me
You're free
Now don't worry 'bout a thing
You can fly without my wings
I know you'll make it on your own, I know
Yeah if you stand up and be strong
I know you'll carry on
And I know that you will see that you're free
Without me, you'll be...
Free, without me
You're free
Free, without me
You're free
Now don't worry 'bout a thing
You can fly without my wings
I know you'll make it on your own, I know
Yeah if you stand up and be strong
I know you'll carry on
And I know that you will see that you're free
You can always underestimate people's brains
But you can never underestimate how they feel
People always talk of things they would not do
So never let them scare you
Never let despise you
Never let them get it in for you
You can always underestimate people's brains
But you can never underestimate how they feel
People always talk of things they would not do
So never let them scare you
Never let despise you
Never let them get it in for you
So, please shut your mouth and open your heart!

Now that the air is out of the way
I'm starting to see myself so clear
Like a light shining into the night
Everybody has a day
When they're criticized for something
But hold on to what you believe
Tell me what you're hiding from
Everybody's on the run
Movin' so fast got to slow it down and breathe
Hold fast to your dreams
And don't be afraid to fly
Alone in the sky
When you do then
You'll be free
Nothing's impossible
Free (alright,alright)
You've achieved the unexplainable
Free
I believe that miracles
Happen to those
Who refuse to be told
They can happen when we least expect
So we let ourselves be free
Mmmmm
Every chance that we take
Is one less mistake we can make
Sometimes are blessings are in disguise
Look beyond what they say
It don't really matter what they see
As long as you can believe
Tell me what you're hiding from
Everybody's on the run
Moving so fast got to slow it down and breathe
Hold fast to your dreams
And don't be afraid to fly
Alone in the sky
When you do then
You'll be free
Nothing's impossible
Free (alright, alright)
You've achieved the unexplainable
Free
I believe that miracles
Happen to those
Who refuse to be told
They can happen when we least expect
So we let ourselves be free
Oh oh
It's difficult to hold on
So easy to let go
And take the road that's least resistent
But you gotta be persistent
(I) leading them to follow
(I) don't wait for tomorrow
(I) got to do it today
Yeah
Free
Nothing's impossible
Free (alrgiht, alright)
You've achieved the unexplainable
Free
I believe that miracles
Happen to those
Who refuse to be told
They can happen when we least expect
So we let ourselves be free
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
If I leave in silence
Would you notice me
Would you hate my absence
Would you drown in your misery
If i leave with a reason
would you argue to your grave
would you hold on to a promise
like a master keeps a slave
I throw the question
to see if you feel the same
because there is nothing
i wouldn't sacrifice
for you
I am too tired to cry
don't you leave me to die
I have become at peace
as you set me free
On my last confession
the final breath i take
will you look me in the eyes
and say my name
the only consolation
is you remember me that way
with the butterflies
and the happy times we made
I throw the question to see if you feel the same
because there is nothing
Ok (Ok) U.K get up

This is a dog eat dog world
But it belongs to the man,
But it's not without the love
Of a woman's understanding
Hurting ourselves for no reason that you have,
Was already yours, anyway,
If you see somebody I want you to smile instead of frown,
Just because they look angry
Don't mean they wanna beat you down,
And it, don't cost you nothing
But you pay for a gun,
Kill our sisters and sons,
People we need to be...
Free!
Said we're Free, to live and love again
To your mum or your sister, brother or friend,
This can be solved, just find it in your soul,
Come get your Free, come get your Free-dom,
The man at telephone, at beginning of track:
Hello, Hello
Tell Me!
This is the song is...
Hmmm.
Should I break like my father?
Should I cry like my mother?
Had I stayed with the others
I had not found my brothers
Free
Yeah we are free
Had I followed my teachers
Like the christian the preachers
I had not cut the wire
Which tied up my desire
Free
Yeah we are free
Free
Yeah we are free
I want to fly
I want to be
I want kiss eternity
I have a dream
I have a time
Tomorrow is a friend of mine
To you and me
We are free
Yeah we are free
We are free
The time that you spend when you daydream alone Daydreaming is Free The aroma
of nag champa filling the room Never smelled so Free Some things always
challenge A smile from me And some things set me Free Electric is everyday what
a display you don?t see No just to be alive may not be all I need Free is Free
indeed That spot in the ocean where the dolphins swim to be Just to feel free
Last man to the bottom
Last man to the bottom
Last man to the bottom
I consider myself free
Run run run outside
Keep your head uncovered
Get that kid outside
Are you out of your mind?
You're free!
Watch your mouth
And watch your television
If something don't look right
Dial 1 800 YOU'RE FREE
Free
You're Free
Run run run outside
Get your hair colored
Hang that thing outside
Are you out of your mind?
You're free!
Watch the sky
And yell at television
If something don't look right
Dial 1 800 YOU'RE FREE
Free
Oh---
VERSE ONE:
Sometimes I want to run and hide
To be completely out of sight from You
You keep calling out my name
Sometimes I think I'm just like Cain
My offering is not the same to You
CHORUS:
Then I remember Jesus came
To save a wretch like me
(He came to save a wretch like me)
Yes, He came so that I might finally be
(He came so I could finally be)
Free
VERSE TWO:
Sometimes it's hard to comprehend
That I have finally found a friend in You
You keep calling out my name
Sometimes on days when I don't care
You whisper softly in my ear I'm free
(repeat Chorus)
'instrument break'
Oh---
Free
Oh---
(repeat Chorus)
Oh---
(He came to save a wretch like me)
And, oh, I'm free, yeah---
Oh---
(He came so I could finally be)
Free
Oh---
(He came to save a wretch like me)
Where did we go wrong
Where did we lose our faith
My brother is in need
But can he depend on me
Do you think if one of you tried
Maybe you could find
A better friend than any other
If you gave more than you took
Life could be so good
Come on and try
Nows the time
Chorus
Cause you're free
To do what you want to do
You've got to live your life
Do what you want to do
Chant
Do what you want
Do what you want to do
Are we all strangers
Does anyone really care
Deep down were all the same
Trying to hide our pain
You think you can never trust another
cause they're all out to get ya
We have to live in this world together
If we open up our hearts
Love can finally start
Come on and try
Nows the time
Chorus
Bridge when you're down and you're
Feeling bad
Everybody has left you sad
Feels like no one will pull you through
It's your life whatcha gonna do
Make that change lets start today
Get outta bed get on your way
Dont be scared your dreams right there
Get'cha 5's, get'cha 10's, get'cha 20's out

Get'cha 5's, get'cha 10's, get'cha 50's out
Get'cha 5's, get'cha 10's, get'cha 50's out
I'm free
I just spent all my money
But I rocked that like it don't cost a thing
Free
Burned a hole in my pocket
But I rocked that like it don't cost a thing
Call me a perfectionist
Addicted to immaculate
The hair right, shoes tight
Got to look the dress the part
With nothin' in my pocket
Got a catwalk for a closet
On my last lonely dollar
Lock me up before I hit the store
Wanna be like Midas
But my bank account is minus
Gotta stretch that dollar bill
Stretch that dollar
Need a genie in a bottle
Change a quarter to a hundred
Gotta stretch that dollar bill
Stretch that dollar bill
I'm free
I just spent all my money
But I rocked that like it don't cost a thing
Free
Burned a hole in my pocket
But I rocked that like it don't cost a thing
I wear it once
And I don't pop the tags
The next day I'ma bring it back
I'm at the store
Can't find nothin' cheaper than my credit score
My wallet's anorexic
Can I pay my rent the next month?
I can hear my name
Callin' from stilettos on display
Window shopping's overrated
If I see it, I'ma take it
Gotta stretch that dollar bill
Stretch that dollar
This Vogue is only paper
I can't wear the glossy pages
Gotta stretch that dollar bill
Stretch that dollar bill
I'm free
I just spent all my money
But I rocked that like it don't cost a thing
Free
Burned a hole in my pocket
But I rocked that like it don't cost a thing
Get'cha 5's, get'cha 10's, get'cha 20's out
Get'cha 5's, get'cha 10's, get'cha 20's out
Get'cha 5's, get'cha 10's, get'cha 50's out
Get'cha 5's, get'cha 10's, get'cha 50's out
I need to marry a man from Bel-Air
One rack, two rack
I can feel the aircraft hangar
With my coat hangers
Bankrupt, it don't matter
Girls give the eye 'cause they so mad
I could look fresh in a potato sack
Need a overdraft, I'ma overdraft
If the bank man calls, just tell him...

Burned a hole in my pocket
But I rocked that like it don't cost a thing
Get'cha 5's, get'cha 10's, get'cha 20's out (burned a whole in my pocket)

I wanna be me and turn you on, cos if I can go where no ones gone, if you have to, just take it if you feel it, then just say it. Is it something you believe
Some might think my hair is too long
Some might fear the beat of this song
So much religion, so many rules
But this is us and we are tools
He calls us to be free
Enjoy that freedom, friends
In time, we all shall see
Where man-made rules end
I might offend you by how I look
But God will not, according to His book
It's by our fruit that we will be judged
To show the world Jesus love
So keep the sheep together
No matter if one's shaved
Cause the wool means nothing
For all Christ came to save
I respect old-fashioned ways
Let's come together in His grace
Lord help us all to understand
Huh, it's goin? down, know what I?m talkin? ?bout?
Hold up, yeah, dedicated to everybody
That's been a part of the struggle
Know what I?m sayin??
Hold up, everybody who's got love ones locked up in that system
Say man, if ya people locked up you need to stay down wit'cha folks
This commentary is very necessary, know what I?m talkin? ?bout?
Young Pimp out here representing for y'all, hold up
I'm back on the slab, back on the block
With the hustlers pleading a album, the crank, they froze on water rocks
The boy Emmitt had me shining when I stepped out the door
I thought I had enough but James Toney gimme some more
And the same damn day I went to the Bentley lot
Off the show room floor, I copped and splurged, that thang was hot
But I bet all you busters already knew that
'Cause I was all on the internet, gettin? my shine back
Making rhymes stack, pimpin? with my mic
Everybody want a piece just 'cause Sweet Jones is what they like
They like the pimp shit, take a trip, if I like it a pimp get
Back floor, laid flow, UGK is back, oh, oh
Free, I'm free
Now, I got the whole world screaming, "Free Pimp C"
I'm free, I'm free
Even life after life, they ain't stoppin? me
It was Free Pimp C, but now see, the pimp free
Old school gave me that before I left that CT
Terrell check my bezzle on this platinum Jacob watch
They locked up my body but my mind never stopped
'Cause I was plottin? and plannin? and schemin? everyday
Gettin? ready for my release so I can steal the game away
From all these clone type niggaz, tryna sound like Pimp C
He's okay but he's not me
By a long shot ?cause 'bout tryna instill to me
Them boys might run BET but trick, we run the streets
It's me and Bun B, that's for life, we the trill
When ya see a pimp shinin?, trick, tell me, how ya feel?
Free, I'm free
Then they got the word that they freed Pimp C
I'm free, free
Even life after life, they ain't stoppin? me
I did 4 years tops, never hit PC
Did my time in Population with the real ol'e G's
I seen a whole lot of pain, men doin? they bids
Most of them just prayin? and who tryna get home to they kids
Wasn't nothin? like Oz, a bunch of iron and bars
Bunch of player hatin? snitches, talkin? to the guards
And a whole penitentiary bein? ran by broads
Some of 'em kept it one hundred, most of them was frauds
Seen a whole lotta chumps, hard men and hustlers
Some big time dealers, kidnappers and busters
Pimps and playas, I seen some kill with they hands
But I still don't believe the pen is no place for no man
Free
But I still don't believe the pen is no place for no man
Free
Know what I?m talkin? ?bout?
Then they got the word that they freed Pimp C
I'm free
Modern day slaves is down here
Know what I?m sayin??
I'm free
Even life after life, they ain't stoppin? me
Yeah, dedicated to everybody ain't gon' never make it up out there
Know what I?m sayin??
To everybody doin' life, keep y'all head up
Don't get fed up, uh
Do yo' time, don't let yo' time do you, Young Pimp
Picture me rollin?, know what I?m talkin? ?bout?
Like 'Pac told 'em when he came home
Jumped in the five hundred
I remember the long warm December we shared
I can still taste the air
You were open and I was hoping you cared
Hoping that you would be there for me
That's the way it was meant to be
But I guess your heart was free
Free to take the best part of me
And leave a hole where my heart should be
Where it used to be
Days are lonely and nights are only a veil
And the air is so stale
I'm still open but I guess you were hoping we'd fail
So you could sail away from me
And return to your open see
Where I guess you need to be
Where you can wander endlessly
Still you know that your heart was free
And you took the best part of me
And left a hole where my heart should be
Where you know it should be
You're for me
I'd have sworn it was destiny
But I know you were always free
Free to be the best part of me
I'd have loved you endlessly
With my heart and soul eternally
A love the way I love should be-ain't that the way a love should be?
You are free
Free to give back the heart of me
And replace all this misery
Since you took the best part of me
And left a hole where my heart should be
What a way to wake up
Just to find you there and
Touch you in the morning
You turn your head and look up
There's no need to catch me
Baby, I'm not falling
Could have guessed after all that
Id be standing tall
You make me feel
Free
When you're near me
Yeah I'm free
All the time
I just need you to hear me
It's only you that makes me free
I'm not used to being loved, not me
Open up the window
Just as the sun comes over the horizon
What a perfect moment
Trying to catch my breath
I find it so surprising
Who'd have guessed after all that
I'd be standing tall
You make me feel
Seem to exist with these
Chains around me
I thought that I was free
I never knew that's not
An easy thing to be
It's just the way that
Your love surrounds me
Who'd have guessed after all that
I'd be standing tall
You make me feel
Free, when you're near me
Who'd have guessed after all that
I'd be standing tall
You make me feel

Rim Music (Administered by BMG Songs, Inc.) (ASCAP)
Turnin' molehills into mountains,
Makin' big deals out of small ones,
Bearing gifts as if they're burdens,
This is how it's been.
Afraid of coming out of my shell,
Too many things I can't do too well,
afraid I'll try real hard, and I'll fail--
This is how it's been.
Till the day You pounded on my heart's door,
And You shouted joyfully,
";You're not a slave anymore!";
Chorus:
";You're free to dance-
Forget about your two left feet
And you're free to sing-even joyful noise is music to Me
You're free to love,
'Cause I've given you My love,
and it's made you free
I have set you free!";
My mind finds hard to believe
That You became humanity and changed the course of history,
Because You loved us so.
And my heart cannot understand
How You accept me as I am,
But You say You've always had a plan,
And that's all I need to know.
So when I am consumed with what the world will say,
Then You're singing to me, as You remove my chains-
Bridge:
Free from worry, free from envy and denial
Free to live, free to give, free to smile
Just you and me, we can hit the highway.
Take all your dreams, and live them out the real way.
Don't know if it's right, but still you want to, take a chance of love and show and prove.
(chorus) Live your life be happy. Spread your wings be free. Show me how to love you,
Girl come live with me. Life don't owe you nothing, but if it's meant to be, then
Maybe our love will endure. (end chorus).
You're scared we could lose, or we could blow the whole thing.
Decisions are hard it's more than just a physical thing.
I know a place we can go, nobody has to know.
And there I'll hold you close, we can let it flow
(chorus)
I dream that we, made love in a storm at sea.
While drops of rain fell softly against our back.
And you lived with me.
We slepton a beach, kiss intimately.
Fall back into the snow
Sink deep
Bury all the troubles that you keep
Follow close to the places your heart needs
Just for a little while, just for a little while
You'll be free
You'll be free
Child, I can tell by the look on your face,
You don't think you belong
You don't think you belong in this place
Promise to come back
Promise to come back...where it's safe
Just for a little while, just for a little while
You'll be free
You'll be free
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
You'll be free
You'll be free
You'll be free
Oh ohhoohh
Once upon a time, I was searchin’ for
Love that would break thru chains of mine
I was broken, hurt and abandoned,
By a life not quite what I had in mind
Then I fell down on my knees and
Prayed release me from this pain,
Take away these clouds and
let the sun shine down again
all at once I felt the ceasing of
the pouring rain
a blaze of light shot thru my soul and tore away my chains
(Chorus):
And now I’m free, I’m free at last,
Free to live the life I want forget about my past
Now I’m free, I’m free at last –
Free to hope, free to dream, free to love at last
But ever since my independence day I’ve been released
From things that used to hold me back from finding perfect
Peace,
Walls I’d built around my life have crumbled around me
My old life has passed away I’m keeping it deceased
Chorus:
Free
How will we be
Free
If we don't know reality
Free
When will we see
Free
Things not like they seem to be
I saw a girl
With a broken heart
Mend the heart of another
I saw a boy
Who had no heart
Lifting out to help his brother
Chorus
I saw a man
Without no home
Giving shelter to another
I know of people
Without hope
Giving strength to each other
Chorus
Bridge:
How can I be
When there are places that I've seen
People sin to be free
People kill to be free
Don't let me go on
Can you help me
Can you tell me what's going on
Everybody needs to be
Chorus
Starting off it was better than this
I know it hurts but do you like to pretend
That you can just let go?
Of the grip that you hold so tight
'Cause they can tell by the look in your eye
They're down a less traveled road
There's a need for change, a need to feel the waves
To feel free like the weight's gone off my shoulders
From the top of the world and I can finally breathe
And do you feel like me? Have you been through what I've been through?
'Cause from the top of the world's where you can finally see
It's safe to just let go
Slow it down to recapture the words
That brought you here and taught you what you learned
They don't care that you can't stop shaking
Just understand you're alright for now
Say what you mean then make your way out
'Cause you're down a dead-end road
If things don't change then go your way
To feel free like the weight's gone off my shoulders
From the top of the world and I can finally breathe
And do you feel like me? Have you been through what I've been through?
'Cause from the top of the world's where you can finally see
It's safe to just let go, it's safe to just let go
You lost your way home, you lost it all, it seems
You lost your way home, you're better off
You're better off without it
Understand, understand
Understand you're alright for now
Slow it down, slow it down
Understand, understand
Understand you're alright for now
Slow it down, slow it down
To feel free like the weight's gone off my shoulders
From the top of the world and I can finally breathe
And do you feel like me? Have you been through what I've been through?
'Cause from the top of the world's where you can finally see
It's safe to just let go
Have you been through what I've been through?
It's safe to just let go
Through the eyes of wonder I see creation unfurl, The beginnin' and endin' of my mind twistin' in curls, so I'm out of the box of thought enterin' a new religion no man can ever hold me down breakin' through a system
and I wanna believe no tricks are up your sleeves but yet as you turned around a card fell down and it was an ace of hearts so you just lost face so I'm never gonna listen to anything that you say (okay)
So now I'm movin' on to the next song cuz ya just don't know whatcha got until it's gone cuz if you did you should treasure it like a kid, the knife of life is sharp when you're doin' a bid.
Hello playin' the cello? Nah I got percussion my heart beat heavy and bass give you concussion my soul grown deep like rivers now ain't that somethin'? Don't come too close mind under construction.

Whispering in his ear
My magic potion for love
Telling him I'm sincere
And that there's nothin' too good for us
And I just got to be me, be me
Whispering in his ear
My magic potion for love
Telling him I'm sincere
And that there's nothin' too good for us
But I want to be free, free, free
And I just got to be me, yeah, be me
Teasing hands, all his might
Give our nights such mystery
Happiness all the time
Oh, and how that man pleases me
But I want to be free, free, free
And I just got to be me, yeah, be me
Ba, de, ah, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
(I just got to be me, be me)
Ba, de, ah, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
Feeling you close to me
Makes all my senses smile
Let's not waste ecstasy
'Cause I'll only be here for awhile
I've got to be free, free, free, oh
And I just got to be me, yeah, yeah, be me, oh
Be free, free, now baby

Whoa, ohoh, free
(I just got to be me, be me)
Me, yeah, yeah
It's not the final destination
It's the journey on the way
And I can feel these times are changing
And nothing could stand in my way
I wanna be free
Free to find where I belong
Free to find my way
I know at times I act a little crazy
And I've made mistakes along the way
But I can see the silver lining
It's about to bring the change I have been waiting for
Hey, hey
I wanna be free
Free to find where I belong
Free to find my way
I wanna be free
I won't fight this feeling
It's leading me so far away
Believe in me, my baby
'Cause everything's gonna be okay
Well, I don't know where I'm going
And I don't know where I might be
But I can feel these times are changing
And that's alright by me
'Cause I'm free
Free to find where I belong
Free to find my way
I wanna be free
'Cause I'm free
Free to find where I belong
Free to find my way
I wanna be free
'Cause I'm free
Free to find where I belong
Free to find my way
I wanna be free

She smiles it's another day
No one knocked on her door today
She hugs her children, tries not to cry
A glass of wine to forget the day
She writes him a letter
Hey baby everything's ok
(just come home)
Can you hear my prayer
I wont live without his love
Its time he comes home to see
The daddy he's become
Every child needs a father
Not a hero in a box
Leaving tears that never dry
And a lifetime full of thoughts
And a lifetime that will never be
Scared to watch the news and hear them say
A soldier lost his life she prays
Kisses his picture and hope remains inside her
Never questions why 'cause she knows he loves his country
A place that needs to be safe for our children to grow
Oh tried to be strong and understanding
But dying won't set us free
No, no – freedom is living with the one we love
I wanta be free to smile
Free to learn, free to love, free to speak, free…
Every child needs a father
Not a hero in a box
Leaving tears that never dry
And a lifetime full of thoughts
That will never be… if you're not free
[PSEUDOLUS]
Oh, what a word!
Oh, what a word!
Say it again.
[HERO]
Free!
[PSEUDOLUS]
I often thought,
I often dreamed how it would be--
And yet I never thought I'd be--
Once again.
[HERO]
Free!
[PSEUDOLUS]
But when you come to think of such things,
A man should have the rights that all others--
Can you imagine what it will be like when I am--
Can you see me?
Can you see me as a Roman with my head unbowed?
Sing it good and loud!
[HERO]
Free!
[PSEUDOLUS]
Like a Roman having rights and like a Roman proud?
Can you see me?
[HERO]
I can see you.
[PSEUDOLUS]
Can you see me, a reformer fighting graft and vice?
Sing it soft and nice!
[HERO]
Free!
[PSEUDOLUS]
Why, I'll be so consciencious that I may vote twice!
Can you see me?
Can you see me?
When I'm free to be whatever I want to be,
Think what wonders I'll accomplish then!
When the master that I serve is me and just me--
Can you see me being equal with my countrymen?
Can you see me being Pseudolus the citizen?
Can you see me being--give it to me once again--
[HERO]
Free!
[PSEUDOLUS]
Yes!
[HERO]
Free!
[PSEUDOLUS]
That's it!
[HERO]
Free!
[PSEUDOLUS]
Now, not so fast!
I didn't think--
The way I am,
I have a roof, three meals a day,
And I don't have to pay a thing.
I'm just a slave and everything's free.
If I were free, then nothing would be free!
And if I'm beaten now and then, what does it matter?
[HERO]
Free!
[PSEUDOLUS]
Can you see me?
Can you see me as a poet writing poetry?
All my verse will be--
[HERO]
Free.
[PSEUDOLUS]
A museum will have me pickled for posterity.
Can you see me?
[HERO]
I can see you.
[PSEUDOLUS]
Can you see me as a lover, one of great renown?
Women falling down--
[HERO]
Free?
[PSEUDOLUS]
No.
But I'll buy the house of Lycus for my house in town.
Can you see me?
Can you see me?
Be you anything from king to baker of cakes,
You're a vegetable unless you're free.
Such a little word, but oh, the difference it makes!
It's the necessary essence of democracy,
It's the thing that every slave should have the right to be,
And I soon will have the right to buy a slave for me.
Can you see him?
Well, I'll free him!
When a Pseudolus can move, the universe shakes,
But I'll never move until I'm free.
Such a little word, but oh, the difference it makes!
I'll be Pseudolus, the founder of a family,
I'll be Pseudolus, the pillar of society,
I'll be Pseudolus the man, if I can only be--
[HERO]
Free!
[PSEUDOLUS]
Sing it!

How many times do we fall in love, memories that pay attention
The clock is ticking for everyone, time out for all the nonsense
How many stars in the universe, long beach shores and foreign countries
It's like we change when the planet turns, kiss clouds and make us all be
Free, just let us be
Don't make me cry, just let us fly
We're making our own world
What your thinking your getting now, your the first to take for granted
Freedom is loving a different phase, watch out it's happening again
Did you feel like you owe me now, everything that I did not do
Follow me if you can't do, this is the time we become
Free, just let us be
Don't make me cry, just let us fly
We're making our own world
Undo this hold on my breast, time just won't let it fade away
These great thoughts will manifest, thinking life over now
Kiss clouds and make us all be
Free, just let us be
Don't make me cry, just let us fly
We're making our own world
Free, just let us be
Don't make me cry, just let us fly
We're making our own world
Free
Don't make me cry
We're making our own world
Free, just let us be
the sun is rising in your brain
alles wird sich um dein schatten drehn
in dir erwacht eine neue welt
die last von deinen schultern faellt
du spuerst die kraft die in dir wohnt
das warten wird nun doch belohnt
die sehnsucht bricht sich ihren pfad
aus traeume waechst die groe tat
fly fly you`re free
spirit of fly illuminate your mind
die leichtigkeit im neuen sein
der sturm dich in die arme nimmt
von nun an er dein weg bestimmt
das leben zieht dich fest im bann
lass alles los es faengt neu an
nichts haelt dich auf der weg ist frei
schreiss heraus es ist vorbei
fly fly you`re free
die wurzel bricht durch den asphalt
menschenwerk weicht urgewalt
dein schatten schwaerzt das morgenlicht
die welt von nichts mehr anderem spricht
fly fly you`re free
Verse 1
Struggles we face each day
Sometimes we lose our way
Each moment that passes by
Longing for reasons why
The problem that seems so great
Defeat is the final phase
Not knowing what else to do
But I know He'll bring me through
Chorus
I know that I'm free
Don't you know I'm free
Yes I'm free, free
He loosed the ties that were binding me
That were binding me
I'm free
Don't you know I'm free
Look at me,
Oh free, Oh free
I'm free indeed
Don't you know I'm
Verse 2
Now I want you to know
Since fear has been let go
No one can hinder me
Here's how the story goes
The peace that I have inside
The joy that I can't describe
This feeling of ecstasy
The love that has raptured me
Chorus
Bridge
Feels like I'm floating on (ooh, ahh) clouds above
Soaring so high with the One I love
Flying around up on (ooh, ahh) wings of air
And it's all because of Your
Tender love and care
Free, free, free
I'm free indeed
Free, free
You can't hold me
Love, love, love
I'm free indeed
Love, love
You can't hold me
Peace, peace, peace
I'm free indeed
Peace, peace
You can't hold me
Joy, joy, joy
I'm free indeed
Joy, joy, joy, joy
You can't hold me
Mothers and belief will make you rich
So say the doctors and priests
Mother abused me when I was weak
God stood behind her in line
I got a line on a different point of view
(As you can well imagine)
I caught a break in you
Dad like a whipped bitch
Was spineless to the core
Death has preceded the both of them
I wish they'd die 10 times more
My trust has witnessed its final blow
(Love has no eyes for me)
After all that they've killed
Soul catchers hanging dry
Press silhouettes to the sky
I'll be there in time
But no thanks to motherhood
Take your sights off of me my dear
Severance from the family tree
Mmm, ooh, I know the pain you feel inside
And the tears you try to hide
In your heart you ask God why
Can you help me, will you help me, please?
Take away the pain
Where's the sun, I feel the rain
Then I hear your spirit say
That I am
Free, free to lift my hands
Free to say Amen
Free to know that someday I will smile again
I'm free, free to laugh, not cry
Free to live, not die, because of your love
Ooh, now I'm, I'm free, yes, I am, ooh
I know, you're troubled by your past
And you hide behind your mask
The misery it seems to last
Through the night, but it's alright, joy
Is just a prayer away
Don't look back at yesterday
Then I hear your spirit say, that I am
Free, free to lift my hands
Free to say Amen
Free to know that someday I will smile again
I'm free, free to laugh, not cry
Free to live, not die, because of your love
Ooh, now I'm, I'm free, yes, I am, ooh
Ohh, no more chains and loneliness
For Christ has set me free
Ohh, for we are more than conquerors
Through His love now I can see that I am
Free, free to lift my hands
Free to say Amen
Free to know that someday I will smile again
I'm free, free to laugh, not cry
Free to live, not die, because of your love
Ooh, now I'm, I'm free, yes, I am, ooh
Satan used to hold me
No longer by me
I am free, yeah, Lordy
I've been around the city watching all the lights turn
And on the corner just another lap, I'm kind of
concerned
I don't see the checker flag and now I'm losing my way
The sun reflecting off the city makes my eyes burn
Before I get to feeling guilty, well, the court is
adjourned
Now I'm never gonna stray that far again
Every choice I make is always endin' in the same
mistake
I'm through with making my own plans
I'm like a feather in the breeze
It doesn't matter where I land
I've got the world to see
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
I walk around to the rhythm of a bird's song
Eight o'clock in the park and I'm humming along
Time to give my feet a rest but my mind travels on
Contemplating how they ever even learn to sing
I join in but they all seem better than me
Wonder how it's even possible but then I see
Every choice I make is always endin' in the same
mistake
I'm through with making my own plans
I'm like a feather in the breeze
It doesn't matter where I land
I've got the world to see
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free
Coz I'm free
Coz I'm free
Coz I'm free
Coz I'm free
I'm through with making my own plans
I'm like a feather in the breeze
It doesn't matter where I land
I've got the world to see
You leave me there,
then you let me go
You build your planes
where no one ever goes
You've always told me
something's never last
So if there's nothing left
Why do you ever ask
Together... Free
Together... Free
Together
Moving out together
Dreams have two places
that we'd never known
across the waters
riding with the wind
a drop in the ocean
something's never there
we're closing out, then you realise
Free as a bird in flight... (blow you heart) Together
Free as a bird in light... moving out together
Free as a bird in flight... Together
Free as a bird in light... moving out together
Free as a bird in flight... Together
Free as a bird in light... moving out together
Free as a bird in flight...
Free as a bird in light...
Together
Moving out together
I'm not asking for miracles, I'm not asking
uh nothing is impossible
you must try
what they say
yeah come storm the weather
keeping us open
blow in heart
keeping us open
Free as a bird in flight (blowing in my heart)
Free as a bird in light (keeping us open)
Free as a bird in flight
Will you ever grow up and accept the facts;
Worthless is this game you devote yourself to
Will you ever find the strength to accept this love
Take this new life; and let it become your purpose
Can you feel this? The power of the truth will set you free
If you realize the meaning of the choice that you must make
You aren't fooling anyone with your charade
You will only hurt yourself none else to blame.
You think you're different than everyone else, what separates you
From all the people that live like hell. You're not so different are you?
What makes you so different? Tell me what makes you so different?
You only have one chance to make a change. What will you do?
To turn around from this path that you take. Then He will save you
You aren't fooling anyone with your charade
You will only hurt yourself if you don't change
Will you take this? And move on from your past
This is the only thing that has the power to make you free
It's not like I'm invisible
You still wear me under your skin
When we talk, we don't talk at all
Too weak to leave, too stubborn to give in
Who is gonna be the first to say a truce
It's not enough that we should part, can't stop fighting too
We don't let go, we can't get close
I still need you when you still need me
This tug of war, can't go on anymore
Nobody wins from this misery
Freeeeee ahhh ahhh ahhh
Well oh can't you see, I wanna be free, I want you to be, free
It's not like she isn't loving you
It's just that you can't be alone for too long
I'd like to wish you all the happiness
Maybe the truth is It'll kill me if you move on
Who is gonna be the first to say enough
Who is gonna be the first one to find true love
We don't let go, we can't get close
I still need you when you still need me
This tug of war, can't go on anymore
Nobody wins from this misery
Freeeeee ahhh ahhh ahhh
Well oh can't you see, I wanna be , I want you to be, free
Let it be, let it be, just a beautiful memory
Anything that starts will have an ending
Let it go, let it go, yeah cause we both know
This will only be over when were, free
Yeah yeah yeah, oh when were freeeee
Oh oh I know ohh
We don't let go, we can't get close
I still need you when you still need me
This tug of war, can't go on anymore
Nobody wins from this misery
Freeeeee ahhh ahhhh ahhh
Well oh can't you see, I wanna be, I want you to be
Whoa, free ahhh, I wanna be, I want ya to be
Oh can't we be, free
Hurting heart and broken wings
Cannot stop Your love from always finding me
No more days wasting away
I finally realize the gift inside of me
My strength alone will never be enough
But Your arms keep lifting me up
You tell me I've been made free
You give me everything I need to walk in my dreams
You whisper words that free my soul
You're the reason I have hope
You're everything I need and more
You made me
You made me free
I was caged in, then You opened
Every door that held me bound and You gave me the key
No more pressure I can just breathe
The girl I tried so hard to be, has always been me
My strength alone will never be enough
But Your arms keep lifting me up
You tell me I've been made free
You give me everything I need to walk in my dreams
You whisper words that free my soul
You're the reason I have hope
You're everything I need and more
Now I'm free to love, free to live,
Free to take my life and give it all to You
You tell me I've been made free
You give me everything I need to walk in my dreams
You whisper words that free my soul
You're the reason I have hope
You're everything I need and more
You made me
You made me free
You made me
Can you live without a one red cent?
Can a little true heart really pay the rent? No
It'll take a lot of give to get
All the money you've spent it's a game of pressure, so
Put a little on the back of someone else
'Cause another problem just to ease yourself
Can't you see that it's coming back around?
And when it comes back it'll drive you farther down
Drive you farther down
Free, now are you?
Is it life that holds us down?
Free, how are you?
When I'm stuck here on the ground
Can you fly without your wings on board?
Seems pretty unfair to end up on the floor
Paying for a crime you weren't charged for
Alive in a world that always wants more
Is it any wonder that you're falling back
Inside the pattern that defines all you lack?
Don't you want to get into your car
And get out of this town?
Get out of this town
Free, now are you?
Is it life that holds us down?
Free, how are you?
When I'm stuck here on the ground
When I'm stuck here on the ground
It's all about the wrong thing
If it doesn't make your heart sing
But it couldn't be the right place
With those tears upon your face
Free, now are you?
Is it life that holds us down?
Free, how are you?
When I'm stuck here on the ground
The ground
Free, now are you?
Free, now are you?
Free, now are you?
Free, now are you?
She's a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too
It's a long day living in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy cos I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin her heart
And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
All the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
And the good girls are home with broken hearts
Now I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
(backing vocals)
Free fallin', now I'm, free fallin', now I'm
Free fallin', now I'm, free fallin', now I'm
I wanna glide down over Valhalla
I wanna write her name in the sky
Gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for a while
(with backing vocals)
Now I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
(with backing vocals)
Yeah I'm free, free fallin' OH
Free falling
Yeah I'm free, OH free fallin'
Verse: This is not about you
It’s all about me, what makes me happy
That’s something you just couldn’t do
Kept bringin me down, I was in the background
Prechorus: You can’t touch me there, you don’t deserve my body baby
You say it’s not fair, but I’m the one who calls it lately, cause I’m
Chorus: Free, yeah
I have arrived, I’m so alive, now that I’m
Free yeah
I’m on my own but not alone, cause I’m
Free
Verse: It’s so different than before
I have a purpose, and I’m not nervous
Now I feel so much more
I’m walking proudly, and singing loudly
Prechorus: And I wouldn’t rather be, anywhere but right here now
And I’m so proud of me, cause no one had to tell me how, cause I’m
Chorus
Bridge: So shove it all into that big head of yours, all those
Dramatic scenes I don’t need any more
Cause I’m Free
Last chorus:
Free Yeah
I’ve got it all, I’m having a ball and I’ve got
Dreams baby, they’re not with you, you get the clue? I’m flyin
Solo baby, I have arrived, I’m so alive, now that I’m
Free yeah, I’m on my own, but not alone, cause I’m
Free like the river
Flowing freely through infinity
Free to be sure of
What I am and who I need not be
Free from all worries
Worries prey on oneself's troubled mind
Freer than the clock's hands
Tickin' way the times
Freer than the meaning of free that man defines
Life running through me
Till I feel my father God has called
Free to be nowhere
But in every place I need to be
Freer than a sunbeam
Shining through my soul
Free from feelin' heat or knowing bitter cold
Free like the river
Free like the river
oooh hooo I am free
I'm Free, like the river.
I'm Free, like the mountain.
I'm Free, like the river.
Goin' through my mind...
I'm Free hehey like the river
oooh hooo I am free
Free
Free eee
I am Free
Free like the river
Out of the blue into a soul, is it worth it? I guess I don't know
Stupid climb, higher place, just to fall down on my face
I am here all alone in a place that no one goes
Close my eyes fall asleep, I'm defeated leave me
Free
Call the boy with no phone, lost the words but hello
Confusion, simple brain, stupid frown on a pretty face
What a fool eye to eye, no need so that I did try
Close my eyes, cry to sleep, I'm defeated leave me
Free
Everything I know is wrong,
But it feels so good I carry on
Everything was done what you'd touch it for
On the top and you suck in more
Everything I do oh you never knew
Believe that it takes more
Write a song blow away, stupid words on empty page
Soul to sun when it comes everyone needs to every
CHORUS
Free, you’ve never been so free
Oleanders, tea and tulips,
Arts and leisure, rainy daydreams
Free, you’ve never been so free.
You’re putting on your makeup
You’re going out for air
Tonight’s he night we break up
And I’m not even there.
I’m dying of your beauty
Our love is such a crime
I cannot set you free now
Cause you were never mine.
CHORUS
I wanted to believe you
I wanted to be one
But everything word you told me
Was such a loaded gun.
Free, you’ve never been so free.
Though I cry for you tonight
I can see you from my window
As you go Free.
Oleander, tea and tulips
Arts and leisure, rainy daydreams
Free, you’ve never been so free
You’ve never been so free
I felt the sun burn in my eyes
I'm walking thru the air at night
I run my hand thru ocean floor
I touched the clouds and wanted more
A thought of life that you could see
A courage deep inside of me
I gave up life within my box
There's so much more than I could be
Standing in place of my shadow
I fall into places of life that's unseen
Freeing my mind to a life that I've wanted
As time's standing still in your dream
One life you live and love
One soul to send above
One night you feel alive again
You watched her give her life away
One broken wing to fly today
She never wanted you to see
The flower turn into a tree
All I want is my intentions
To lead my life for me
A sense of all I wanted
Come restless sleep
Come and lay me down and ease my worry
Slow my mind and help me
Help me find my release
I am held in the prison cryin'
On my knees prayin' I won't
Die in this moment of grief
Now I'm here and I'm waiting
Won't you come and carry me
High above so I can see
Pick me up out of this haze
And put your arms around me
Come and lift me up so I can be free
Come my escape
'Cause I try to scream I'm hearin' silence
Beggin' someone help me
Help me find my way
'Cause I'm reachin' out in all directions
Believin' that there's some way
I can live in this moment alone
So I'm hear and I'm waiting
Won't you come carry me
High above so I can see
Pick me up out of this haze
And put your arms around me
Come and lift me up so I can be free
So I'm here and I'm waiting
Won't you come carry me
High above so I can see
Pick me up out of this haze
And put your arms around me
Walking down this road I see a path that still reminds me
Of everything that I have done before
And in my heart I know that I am sifting through the riddles
And I don't ever want to be alone
I keep searching for the answers
I keep looking around for more
(Chorus)
Then I'm free
So break these chains that bind me
And strip away all that was there before
Now I'm free
Put all this pain behind me
I finally found what I was looking for
Morning comes and now I see my life is just beginning
I can't wait for all there is to come
You became my passion, gave me something to believe in
Now I know my life has just begun
And I finally found the answer
To what I was looking for
(Chorus)
I keep walking down this dusty road
That I have made for myself
And no one else but me
And it took so long but now I'm found
You're the only one who could ever save me
Thank God I'm free
Now I'm free
Put all this pain behind me
I finally found what I was looking for
Then I'm free
So break these chains that bind me
And strip away all that was there before
I always knew that I would be the one
Be the one
Escape the nightmare I made through my mind
I sit and think about you all the time
All the time
I hope and pray that soon the day will come
Free I wanna be free
Free to love somebody
Free I wanna believe
That you wont hurt nobody
Free I wanna be free
Free to love somebody
Free I wanna believe
That you wont hurt nobody
I heard the intuit it made me cry
Made me cry
I could see fear in side of all their eyes
I hope this day will soon come to an end
Come to an end
So we can get to live and leave again
Free I wanna be free
Free to love somebody
Free I wanna believe
That you wont hurt nobody
Free I wanna be free
Free to love somebody
Free I wanna believe
That you wont hurt nobody
Freeeee
Wooooooahwoooooahwoooooooooahwoooooahwooooah
Free I wanna be free
Free I wanna believe
Free I wanna be free
Free to love somebody
Free I wanna believe
That you wont hurt nobody
Freeeee
(That you wont hurt nobody)
(Swiss American Federation Club Mix)
And do you still touch her like you do
Kissed all over in the way I kissed with you
Or when you sleep with her do you sometimes think of me
Not if you love her the way that I see
I Had to be free
Had to be free
It's all that I wanted
I wanted to see
Wanted to be
Alone if I needed
I Had to be free
Had to be free
From feelings that haunted
I wanted to see
Wanted to be
Free
And then in the evening light when the birds are free to fall
I watch the two of you in the shadows on the wall
How in the darkness stills some of the choices from my hand
Will I began to understand
I Had to be free
Had to be free
It's all that I wanted
I Wanted to see
Wanted to be
Alone if I needed
I Had to be free
Had to be free
From feelings that haunted
I wanted to see
Wanted to be
Free
I Had to be free
Had to be free
It's all that I wanted
I Wanted to see
Wanted to be
Alone if I needed
I Had to be free
Had to be free
From feelings that haunted
I wanted to see
Wanted to be
Free
You took away what we had to offer to the world
Who knew so much trouble could come from just one girl?
I'm not the only one
Take a look around you at the destruction that you've caused
Underneath the rubble lie the ones that you once loved
But we mean f*ck all to you now...
You know damn well what's wrong,
But you don't care what's right
Put down your weapons I'm not looking for a fight
Tag you're it, tag you're it,
Take your temper tantrums to someone that gives a sh*t.
'Cause you contol my life more than I ever could...
And now, and now, and nowwww...
I am breaking free
And now, and nowwww,
I'm breaking free,
Brothers and sisters follow me.
Yeah we told you what you wanted to hear,
And yeah we lied!
But it's soo f*cking hard, staying on your good side
But we thought what choice do we have?
I'm stuck in the mud, stuck in the mud, yeah I'm trapped
As I stand next to you better be careful not to get papped (paparazzi! )
'Cause you're soo frickin' famous, everybody knows your name
And soon everybody will know your game
You know damn well what's wrong,
But you don't care what's right
Put down your weapons I'm not looking for a fight
Tag you're it, tag you're it,
Take your temper tantrums to someone that gives a sh*t.
'Cause you contol my life more than I ever could...
And now, and now, and nowwww...
I am breaking free
And now, and nowwww,
I'm breaking free,
Brothers and sisters follow me.
(Instrumental )
Loosen your grip, loosen your grip on me
'Cause I have no choice but to break free X2
You know damn well what's wrong,
But you don't care what's right
Put down your weapons I'm not looking for a fight
Tag you're it, tag you're it,
Take your temper tantrums to someone that gives a sh*t.
'Cause you contol my life more than I ever could...
And now, and now, and nowwww...
I am breaking free
And now, and nowwww,
I'm breaking free,
Been traveling on this road for a long time
Trying to figure out who I am inside
Because I think that in time
I'll become who I should be
(free)
Going through this journey
to find out what I'm supposed to be
Instead of all this stressing
I'm going to live free
(free)
Free like an eagle flying
(free)
Father will you give me guidance
(free)
Show me where the light is
I want to live my life in power
That's why I face up to my duties
It's the 25th hour
And I refuse to live in defeat
(free) it has
to be something better than this
I pray that I sustain
The trials that I've been going through
I know that there is gain
I see the shadows up ahead
Come and take a walk with me,
A ha ha,
I'm walking down the road of life and I don't know where I'm heading,
The wind may blow me back but the sun may make me blinded,
Iv'e got the fire inside that's gunna keep me going,
And I know in my heart; my vioce will show me the way,
I'll destroy the restrictions the inovations and limits,
This song inside my head is gunna keep me moving,
Il release my spirit and let it fly over the highest mountain,
My hopes and dreams so high il never give up on them.
I'm free to be anything I want to be
I'm free to go anywhere I want to go
Along the way I feel the vibes and dance to different rhythems,
Wherever I go I'll wanna hear the sound of every season,
People of the world unite and sing in joyful harmoney
Every culture color and creed will make a new sweet melody
I'm free to be anything I want to be
I'm free to go anywhere I want to go
I'll destroy the restrictions the inovations and limits,
This song inside my head is gunna keep me moving,
Everyday I am so glad simply that I'm breathing,
Each day I can't help myself all I wanna do is sing,
I'm free to be anything I want to be
(Yehey yeh ye yeh)
I'm free to go anywhere I want to go
(Ohh yeh yeh yee)
Voices in the hills
Echoes in the valleys
I hear them everywhere
People of the world let the music play (plaaaayyy yeh yeh)
(Bm bm bm bm bm bm de baa)
Would you believe me if i said
That we are the ones who can make the change
in the world today
Would you believe me if i said
that all of the dreams in your heart
can come true.....today...
would you believe me if i said
that life could be all that you want it to be
...today...
and if i had wings i would fly
'cause all that i need You are
and if the world caved in around me
to You i'd still hold on
'cause Your all that i believe
and the one that created me
Jesus.... because of You i'm Free
Would you belive me if i said
that God can make miracles happen today
would you believe me if i said
that you don't need to wait for the answer before
you step out in faith
would you believe me if i said
that nothin is ever impossible.. for God
Just live your life with God inside
you won't regret one moment of it
And I watched you leaving
A siloutte of all the times we shared
And there's no reason
For you to turn around and come back here
I guess I knew that
You'd grow up to be the woman that you are
But now that you're leaving
I never thought the day would come so soon
But you gotta be free
To walk down the path of uncertainty
You gotta believe yeah
That you're gonna make it yeah
You gotta be free
To take the chances that you need to take
You gotta believe yeah
That you're gonna make it yeah
I thought I saw you
Smilin down at me from a billboard sign
I guess I'm lookin just a little too hard
And I thought I heard you
Singin to me from the broadway stage
And you were a queen there who finally found her star
I can't deny that you're a dreamer
I watched you spread your wings and fly away forever
But when you said goodbye I knew
That you gotta be free
To walk down the path of uncertainty
You gotta believe yeah
That you're gonna make it yeah
You gotta be free
To take the chances that you need to take
You gotta believe yeah
That you're gonna make it yeah
I still remember when I looked into your baby blue eyes
I remember thinking that you can be what you want to be
Thanks for all your help dad
I understand why you're so sad
But there's a world out there for me so I must be on my way
You gotta be free
To walk down the path of uncertainty
You gotta believe yeah
That you're gonna make it
You got to be free [Walk down the path of uncertainty]
And I hope you're still believing [You just got to believe]
That you're gonna make it [That you're gonna make it]
Cause I watched you leavin
And I knew that you just got to be free
Taken away with everything you believe
Watch what you say
They're closer than before
On my own
Crushing every word
Some day you'll get what you deserve
Oh my God, oh my God
The walls are closing in
The lines begin to follow hollow veins beneath my skin
Glorious, Glorious
Your words beneath my lungs
Consume the wounds that carry my own cross to find your
Losing yourself with every breath that you breathe
Watch what you do
They're knocking at your door
One by one
Repeating what you heard
Someday you'll get what you deserve
Be still love
They're right above you
Find another way
Find another way
Find another away
Find another away
Free to breathe again
You're free to move again
You're free to live again
You're free to move
Free to move again
Where did we go wrong
Where did we lose our faith
My brother is in need
But can he depend on me
Do you think if one of you tried
Maybe you could find
A better friend than any other
If you gave more than you took
Life could be so good
Come on and try
Nows the time
Chorus
Cause you're free
To do what you want to do
Youve got to live your life
Do what you want to do
Chant
Do what you want
Do what you want to do
Are we all strangers
Does anyone really care
Deep down were all the same
Trying to hide our pain
You think you can never trust another
Cause they're all out to get ya
We have to live in this world together
If we open up our hearts
Love can finally start
Come on and try
Nows the time
Chorus
Bridge when you're down and youre
Feeling bad

Get outta bed get on your way
Don't be scared your dreams right there
You want it reach for it
Chorus
Chant
[Spoken Word - Talking:]
Damn!
I never thought you would do this to me
Thought you was so innocent
Thought I was the only one
And you wait all the way til now to tell me
Man, I've been feeling like I'm in some kinda prison
And I wanna be free
Mmmmmmmmmmm
I could still remember you telling me that I was the only one and nobody had ever touched you
Since the last time I called you and we were critical
So I moved on and you made me trust you again
No I take that back 'cause I never really trusted you
I just did what I had to do 'cause I loved you
I remember whispers in my ear telling me to have no fear 'cause nobody else lives here
But it was all a lie (lie)
And all the time (time with you)
[Chorus:]
Ever since you told me I'm a tell you how it's been
Don't talk to nobody not even my friends
I can't sleep
And I don't even clean
I ain't had a good meal
This is how you make me feel when you're not here
It's like you locked me up and threw away the key
And everywhere I turn it's like four walls are surrounding me and their moving in slowly
I'm so lonely
Feels like I'm in some kind of prison
And I wanna be free (free)
So come back to me
Now I know this might sound hard to believe
'Cause I'm famous all up on MTV
But you don't even know the half
No I don't barely laugh
All the girls around me but I don't even know the last time I got some ass
And it ain't 'cause I can't get it
It's jus cause I don't want it
Everytime I think about sex
All I can think is about you moaning
And some man fucking my name
Tatted between your legs
Image burned in my head
And it's killing me baby
It's driving me crazy
[Chorus:]
Ever since you told me I'm a tell you how it's been
Don't talk to nobody not even my friends
I can't sleep
And I don't even clean
I ain't had a good meal
This is how you make me feel when you're not here
It's like you locked me up and threw away the key
And everywhere I turn it's like four walls are surrounding me and their moving in slowly
I'm so lonely
Feels like I'm in some kind of prison
And I wanna be free (free)
So come back to me
You got me drinking?
You got me smoking?
You got me choking?
Do you hear me crying?
Baby do you hear me dying?
Ooh you got me drinking (drinking, drinking, drinking)
Ooh you got me smoking (smoking, smoking, smoking)
You got me choking (choking, choking, choking)
Do you see me crying?
Baby do you see me dying?
And I wanna be free
So come back to me
[Chorus:]
Ever since you told me I'm a tell you how it's been
Don't talk to nobody not even my friends
I can't sleep
And I don't even clean
I ain't had a good meal
This is how you make me feel when you're not here
It's like you locked me up and threw away the key
And everywhere I turn it's like four walls are surrounding me and their moving in slowly
I'm so lonely
Feels like I'm in some kind of prison
And I wanna be free (free)
So come back to me
Drinking, drinking, drinking
Smoking, smoking, smoking
Choking, choking, choking
Do you hear me crying?
Baby do you hear me dying?
Ooooh I'm locked up (you won't let me out)
You got me locked up (you won't let me out)
[Chorus:]
Ever since you told me I'm a tell you how it's been
Don't talk to nobody not even my friends
I can't sleep
And I don't even clean
I ain't had a good meal
This is how you make me feel when you're not here
It's like you locked me up and threw away the key
And everywhere I turn it's like four walls are surrounding me and their moving in slowly
I'm so lonely
Feels like I'm in some kind of prison
And I wanna be free (free)
Ohhhh
I wanna feel so free, ohhh
I wanna feel so free, ohhh
This time I'm free
This time I'm free to do what I want
This time I'm free
This time I'm free to do what I want
Freedom
Freedom
The North, The South, The East, The West, Freedom
Well I'm free, I'm free like a world, I am
I'm higher than the moon and so much higher still to go
I'm dancing on the silver star, my boot prints on the
white-wall tire
See, see everyone's beautiful
Beautiful and terrified by the sun that's rising up in
the east
I gotta find my way home soon or I'll just drown in my
delight
And if I stumble my way through another year of
blindness
I don't deserve to come down from these drugs inside my
brain
And if I fumble my way to the people who are mindless
I guess I get what's coming to me and my evil wicked
ways
Run, faster than light through me
You can soak my nerves in this vibration
Riding through your imagination
Boot prints on the yellow fire
My footprints on the gilded star
But death, it's more than I can bear tonight
It's not the thought of being gone or the dark that I
don't like
But more confused by the emptiness of breath (where
does it go?)
And if I stumble my way through another year of
blindness
I don't deserve to come down from these drugs inside my
brain
And if I stumble my way to the people who are mindless
I guess I get what's coming to me and my evil wicked
ways
The roads I make us lost our way that guarantees and
beds we make
Our life goes on for better change the ground it
crumbles cracks and shakes
Underfoot the bugs and snakes they carry us, they carry
us away from here
And underground it's happy deep where you go down
Oh, hallelujah, God is great
You're never wrong, you're never late
'Cause he designs these pretty things
Where there is night, there'll be a shining light
Through the darkness so the world can see
Where there is faith, His power will be released
Believe and reach for the things unseen
Where there is pain, there willbe eternal love
Breaks the cages, sets the heart to flight
Where there is hope, there'll be a dream for all
Where there is Jesus, there is liberty
And I'm free
You've paid the price
For on the cross my sins are washed
I'm free
To sing Your love and dance with joy
Your truth has set me free
And I'm free
Yeah, I'm free
Free Your love has set me free
I never want here you speak to me
We never dream that you and me
I never let it be
I always got that we were truth
I never blame you from before
I want to send this free
I never want you keep you close to me
We never dream you stay with me
I never make me sick
I always got that we were truth
I never blame you from before
I want to send this free
Do you hearing??
Today's the day, made up my mind.
Be who I am and chase the sunshine.
I close my eyes, dream of escape.
My imagination saves me.
When we're together.
We're something to see.
Right there for each other - aa
What we wanna be..
Sometimes I feel like like breaking free!
Let's lift these chains..
Let's rock this wave right out to sea..
I'm craving for sunlight..
The wind in my hair..
I'll make my escape and breathe in the air..
I will be..
Breaking Free!
I tap the glass and watch the rain.
I count the hours, back to us again.
We could be miles away from here.
We could just disappear!
When we're together.
We're all we can be.
Right there for each other - aa
Lost in our dreams..
Ohhh
Sometimes I feel like breaking free!
Let's lift these chains..
Let's rock this wave, right out to sea..
I'm craving for sunlight..
The wind in my hair..
I'll make my escape and breathe in the air..
I will be..
I will be..
Breaking Free!
To be with you in our own world..
Is all I crave.
C'mon let's go!
I made my plans, so let's escape..
I can't wait!
When we're together.
We're something to see..
(We're something to see)
Right there for each other - aa..
Like we'll always be..
Sometimes I feel like Breaking Free!
Let's lift these chains..
Let's rock this wave, right out to sea..
I'm craving for sunlight.
The wind in my hair.
I'll make my escape and breathe in the air..
I will be...
I WILL BE..
Breaking Free!
Breaking Free!
If I was a bird
I could take to the sky
I'd just have
To open my wings
It feels like I'm flying
When I look in your eyes
And it's all because
Of the love that you bring
I've spent most of my life
Stuck on the ground
But you lift me up so high
Ooh baby
Just look at me now
[Chorus:]
I'm free
You make me feel so free
I never thought
I could feel so much love
You're the only one
The only one for me
You make me feel so free
If I was a ship
I could sail away
Out on endless oceans of blue
And the touch of your hand
Is the light of my day
And the gentle breeze
Baby, that's you
I've spent most of my life
Tied to the shore
Baby, but you cut the tides
And with your life
It is so much more
(Chorus)
I believe the greatest gift
Of loving somebody is
To feel the wind
Rushing through your heart
You fly me so high
When I'm here in your arms
I'm free
slow down and you'll stagger inside the inverse maze
twisting while suspended crumbles the icy chains
your eyes wander as you ponder this life passes you by
chance can't change all the things that you want to
change
shimmering ambiguity dissipate
follow your inner self not conformity's restraint
feel the passion glowing growing emphasized
dismal factions that once permeated fade and die
free again
never to return
free again

Natalia Keery-Fisher[3][4] (born 15 August 1986) is an English singer-songwriter, actress, and director who performs under the stage name Natalia Kills. She released her debut album, Perfectionist, in 2011.
Contents |
Biography[link]
1986–94: Early life[link]
Kills was born in Bradford, West Yorkshire, to an Afro-Jamaican father and Uruguayan mother,[5] where she attended Bradford Girls' Grammar School. In addition, she studied classical drama at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.[3] She stated in a post on her blog on social website, MySpace that she grew up flying between London and Florida, where she had relatives, resulting in a mixed American and English accent.[6]
1995–2010: Career beginnings[link]
Kills made her acting debut at age 9 in 1995 in New Voices. She had a regular role as Sima on the TV sitcom All About Me and also played Amy Franks in the BBC's long-running radio drama The Archers. She began writing songs at 14,[7] some of which were featured in films and television shows, including Bring It On 4, Sleepover, Just My Luck, and Entourage.[4] After finishing with The Archers in 2003, Kills began pursuing a music career and attributes her musical breakthrough to winning a Radio 1 MC Battle in Leeds under the name "Candy Rapper" in 2003.[3] She signed to the UK record company Adventures in Music and released her first single "Don't Play Nice" under the name Verbalicious in February 2005. Kills' told W that her childhood nickname from her mother was "Verbal" because she talked and sang a lot. She adopted the name and variations of it as her stage name at some points during her career.[8]
While writing music for films,[9] Kills posted her self-produced and written demo extended play, Wommanequin on music social website MySpace in 2007 that attracted the attention of blogger Perez Hilton in 2008, her song received 2 million plays on the website and Kills reached the top of the unsigned artists chart.[8] With offers coming in for concerts and festivals, Kills moved to Los Angeles.[9] In LA, Kills was approached by producers, A&R and labels with contracts.[9][10] A DJ introduced her to will.i.am after hearing her demo and learning that she did not have a record deal. In January 2008, will.i.am signed her to his record label, will.i.am Music Group. She did not sign right away as she had reservations about the music industry and will.i.am had to go to London a month later to convince her to record with him.[9] During this time she also co-wrote and appeared on "They Talk Shit About Me" by French recording artist M. Pokora and met underground director Guillaume Doubet, who would go on to direct many of her videos, in Paris.
[edit] 2011—: Perfectionist
Kills explained in an interview that she adopted the stage name Natalia Kills at the behest of her record company, which found "Natalia Cappuccinni" hard to pronounce.[9] She had taken on her grandmother's family name a few years prior.[6] She explained in an interview that her stage name is based on the phrase "you killed it," and represents her tendecy to be a perfectionist.[11] Kills released her debut album Perfectionist in April 2011 in Germany following a top ten placing by the first single, "Mirrors". The album was described as a concept album by Kills, chronicling the fact that perfection is attainable.[7] It features production by Jeff Bhasker and Fernando Garibay,[7] who had worked with Lady Gaga.[12] The album was accompanied by four singles, "Mirrors", "Wonderland", "Free" and "Kill My Boyfriend". The first three singles were minor hits in some European countries but failed to chart in the US or UK. Kills opened for Kelis' European All Hearts Tour, as well as supported Robyn on her Body Talk Tour in November 2010 and early 2011. She also supported Ke$ha on the UK leg of her Get Sleazy Tour. Throughout August and September 2011, Kills supported Katy Perry on her California Dreams Tour for eight dates in Europe[13] and São Paulo, Brazil. She also opened for the Black Eyed Peas over the summer of 2011 in Europe.[8][11]
Kills is featured on a Junior Caldera's single, "Lights Out (Go Crazy)", along with Far East Movement. It was released on March 13, 2012.[14] Kills also features in Tatana's single, "You Can't Get In My Head (If You Can't Get In My Bed)".
On April 4, 2012, the singer took to Twitter to announce she was back in the studio, potentially beginning work on her second studio album.
Influences[link]
Kills called Kate Bush and Alanis Morissette her most important musical influences, highlighting them as emotional artists who wrote honestly about their own experiences.[15] She has also gone on to cite Gwen Stefani as her hero. She also claims that Depeche Mode, Prince, Vanity 6 and Freddie Mercury inspire her live performances.[11]

Early life and education[link]
Kaku was born in San Jose, California to Japanese immigrant parents. His grandfather came to the United States to take part in the clean-up operation after the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake[citation needed]. His father was born in California but was educated in Japan and spoke little English. Both his parents were put in the Tule Lake War Relocation Center, where they met and where his two brothers were born.
At Cubberley High School in Palo Alto, Kaku assembled an atom smasher in his parents' garage for a science fair project.[2] At the National Science Fair in Albuquerque, New Mexico, he attracted the attention of physicist Edward Teller, who took Kaku as a protégé, awarding him the Hertz Engineering Scholarship. Kaku graduated summa cum laude from Harvard University in 1968 and was first in his physics class. He attended the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley and received a Ph.D. in 1972, and in 1972 he held a lectureship at Princeton University.
During the Vietnam War, Kaku completed his U.S. Army basic training at Fort Benning, Georgia and his advanced individual training at Fort Lewis, Washington.[3] However, the Vietnam War ended before he was deployed as an infantryman.
Academic career[link]
Kaku became a visiting professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton,[4] and New York University.[5] He currently holds the Henry Semat Chair and Professorship in theoretical physics at the City College of New York.[6]
Kaku has had over 70 articles published in physics journals such as Physical Review, covering topics such as superstring theory, supergravity, supersymmetry, and hadronic physics.[7] In 1974, along with Prof. Keiji Kikkawa of Osaka University, he authored the first papers describing string theory in a field form.[8][9]
Kaku is the author of several textbooks on string theory and quantum field theory.
Popular science[link]
Kaku is most widely known as a popularizer of science.[10] He has written books and appeared on many television programs as well as film. He also hosts a weekly radio program.
Books[link]
Kaku is the author of various popular science books.

Radio[link]
Kaku is the host of the weekly, one-hour radio program Explorations, produced by the Pacifica Foundation's WBAI in New York. "Explorations" is syndicated to community and independent radio stations and makes previous broadcasts available on the program's website. Kaku defines the show as dealing with the general topics of science, war, peace, and the environment.
In April 2006, Kaku began broadcasting Science Fantastic on 90 commercial radio stations, the only nationally syndicated science program on commercial radio in the United States. It is syndicated by Talk Radio Network and now reaches 130 radio stations and America's Talk on XM. The program is formatted as a live listener call-in show, focusing on "futurology," which he defines as the future of science.[citation needed] Featured guests include Nobel laureates and top researchers on the topics of string theory, time travel, black holes, gene therapy, aging, space travel, artificial intelligence, and SETI. When Kaku is busy filming for television, Science Fantastic goes on hiatus, sometimes for several months. Kaku is also a frequent guest on many programs, where he is outspoken in all areas and issues he considers of importance, such as the program Coast to Coast AM, where on 30 November 2007, he reaffirmed his belief that there is a 100% probability of extraterrestrial life in the universe.[13]
Kaku has appeared on The Opie and Anthony Show a number of times, discussing popular fiction such as Back to The Future, Lost, and the theories behind time-travel that these and other fictional entertainment focus on.

In 1999, Kaku was one of the scientists profiled in the feature-length film Me and Isaac Newton, directed by Michael Apted. It played theatrically in the United States, was later broadcast on national TV, and won several film awards.[citation needed]
In 2005, Kaku appeared in the short documentary Obsessed & Scientific. The film is about the possibility of time travel and the people who dream about it. It screened at the Montreal World Film Festival and a feature film expansion is in development talks. Kaku also appeared in the ABC documentary UFOs: Seeing Is Believing, in which he suggested that while he believes it is extremely unlikely that extraterrestrials have ever actually visited Earth, we must keep our minds open to the possible existence of civilizations a million years ahead of us in technology, where entirely new avenues of physics open up. He also discussed the future of interstellar exploration and alien life in the Discovery Channel special Alien Planet as one of the multiple speakers who co-hosted the show, and Einstein's Theory of Relativity on The History Channel.
In February 2006, Kaku appeared as presenter in the BBC-TV four-part documentary Time which seeks to explore the mysterious nature of time. Part one of the series concerns personal time, and how we perceive and measure the passing of time. The second in the series deals with cheating time, exploring possibilities of extending the lifespan of organisms. The geological time covered in part three explores the ages of the earth and the sun. Part four covers the topics of cosmological time, the beginning of time and the events that occurred at the instant of the big bang.
On January 28, 2007, Kaku hosted the Discovery Channel series 2057. This three-hour program discussed how medicine, the city, and energy could change over the next 50 years.
In 2008, Kaku hosted the three-hour BBC-TV documentary Visions of the Future, on the future of computers, medicine, and quantum physics, and he appeared in several episodes of the History Channel's Universe series.
On December 1, 2009, he began hosting a 12-episode weekly TV series for the Science Channel at 10 pm, called Sci Fi Science: Physics of the Impossible, based on his best-selling book. Each 30-minute episode discusses the scientific basis behind imaginative schemes, such as time travel, parallel universes, warp drive, star ships, light sabers, force fields, teleportation, invisibility, death stars, and even superpowers and flying saucers. Each episode includes interviews with the world's top scientists working on prototypes of these technologies, interviews with science fiction fans, clips from science fiction movies, and special effects and computer graphics. Although these inventions are impossible today, the series discusses when these technologies might become feasible in the future.[14]
In 2010, he began to appear in a series on the website Gametrailers.com called Science of Games, discussing the scientific aspects of various popular video games such as Mass Effect 2 and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.
Kaku is popular in mainstream media because of his knowledge and his accessible approach to presenting complex subjects in science. While his technical writings are confined to theoretical physics, his public speaking and media appearances cover a broad range of topics, from the Kardashev scale to more esoteric subjects such as wormholes and time travel. In January 2007, Kaku visited Oman. While there, he talked at length to select members of that country's decision makers. In an interview with local media, Dr Kaku elaborated on his vision of mankind's future. Kaku considers climate change and terrorism as serious threats in man's evolution from a Type 0 civilization to Type 1.[15]
He is pictured in Symphony of Science's newest song (as of September 6, 2011), 'The Quantum World.'
On October 11, 2010, Michio Kaku appeared in the BBC program "What Happened Before the Big Bang" (along with Laura Mersini-Houghton, Andrei Linde, Roger Penrose, Lee Smolin, Neil Turok, and other notable cosmologists and physicists), where he propounded his theory of the universe created out of nothing.[16]
Social policy advocacy[link]
Kaku has publicly stated his concerns over matters including the anthropogenic cause of global warming, nuclear armament, nuclear power and the general misuse of science.[17] He was critical of the Cassini–Huygens space probe because of the 72 pounds (33 kg) of plutonium contained in the craft for use by its radioisotope thermoelectric generator. Conscious of the possibility of casualties if the probe's fuel were dispersed into the environment during a malfunction and crash as the probe was making a 'sling-shot' maneuver around earth, Kaku publicly criticized NASA's risk assessment.[18] He has also spoken on the dangers of space junk and called for more and better monitoring. Kaku is generally a vigorous supporter of the exploration of outer space, believing that the ultimate destiny of the human race may lie in extrasolar planets; but he is critical of some of the cost-ineffective missions and methods of NASA.
Kaku credits his anti-nuclear war position to programs he heard on the Pacifica Radio network, during his student years in California. It was during this period that he made the decision to turn away from a career developing the next generation of nuclear weapons in association with Edward Teller and focused on research, teaching, writing and media.[citation needed] Kaku joined with others such as Helen Caldicott, Jonathan Schell, Peace Action and was instrumental in building a global anti-nuclear weapons movement that arose in the 1980s, during the administration of U.S. President Ronald Reagan.
Kaku was a board member of Peace Action and on the board of radio station WBAI-FM in New York City where he originated his long running program, Explorations, that focused on the issues of science, war, peace and the environment.
His remark from an interview in support of SETI, "We could be in the middle of an intergalactic conversation...and we wouldn't even know.", is used in the third Symphony of Science installment "Our Place in the Cosmos".
Personal life[link]
Kaku is married to Shizue Kaku and has two daughters.[19]

Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr. (born October 20, 1971), better known by his stage name Snoop Dogg (formerly known as Snoop Doggy Dogg), is an American rapper, record producer, and actor. Snoop is best known as a rapper in the West Coast hip hop scene, and for being one of Dr. Dre's most notable protégés. Snoop Dogg was a Crip gang member while in high school. Shortly after graduation, he was arrested for cocaine possession and spent six months in Wayside County Jail. His music career began in 1992 after his release when he was discovered by Dr. Dre. He collaborated on several tracks on Dre's solo debut, The Chronic and on the titular theme song to the film Deep Cover.
Snoop's debut album Doggystyle, was released in 1993 under Death Row Records making a debut at No.1 on both the Billboard 200 and R&B charts. Selling almost a million copies in the first week of its release, Doggystyle quickly became certified 4× platinum in 1994 and spawned several hit singles, including "What's My Name" and "Gin & Juice". In 1994, Snoop released a soundtrack on Death Row Records for the short film Murder Was The Case, starring himself. In early 1996, Snoop Dogg was cleared of charges over his bodyguard's 1993 murder of Philip Woldemariam. His second album, late 1996's Tha Doggfather, also debuted at No.1 on both charts with "Snoop's Upside Ya Head" as the lead single. The album sold only half as well, being certified double platinum in 1997.
Tha Doggfather was his last release for Death Row before he signed with No Limit Records, where he recorded his next three albums. Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told in 1998, No Limit Top Dogg in 1999 (making it his last album of the 90s), and Tha Last Meal in 2000, which was his last No Limit Records album. Snoop then signed with Priority/Capitol/EMI Records in 2002, where he released his album Paid tha Cost to Be da Boss. Then he signed with Geffen Records in 2004 for his next three albums R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece, Tha Blue Carpet Treatment, and Ego Trippin'. Malice 'n Wonderland (2009) and Doggumentary (2011), his most recent release, were on Priority.
In addition to music, Snoop Dogg has starred in motion pictures and hosted several television shows: Doggy Fizzle Televizzle, Snoop Dogg's Father Hood and Dogg After Dark. He also coaches a youth football league and high school football team. He has run into many legal troubles, some of which caused him to be legally banned from the UK and Australia, although the UK ban was later reversed after a long legal battle.[1] He is the cousin of Nate Dogg, Daz Dillinger, RBX and Lil' ½ Dead and the cousin of R&B singers Brandy and Ray J. Starting September 2009, Snoop was hired by EMI as the chairman of a reactivated Priority Records.[2]
Life and career[link]
Early life[link]
Named after his stepfather, Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Sr. (December 10, 1948 – November 9, 1985, Los Angeles), Calvin Broadus was born October 20, 1971 at the Los Altos Hospital in Long Beach, California, the second of three sons of Beverly Broadus (née Tate; born April 27, 1951, McComb, Mississippi).[3][4][5] His father, Vernall Varnado (born December 13, 1949, Magnolia, Mississippi),[3] was a Vietnam veteran, singer, and mail carrier who was said to be frequently absent from his life.[6] Broadus' parents nicknamed him "Snoopy" as a child because of his appearance, but usually addressed him as Calvin at home.[7][8] His mother and stepfather divorced in 1975. At an early age, Broadus began singing in Golgotha Trinity Baptist Church and playing piano; when he was in sixth grade, he began rapping.[9][10] He attended Long Beach Polytechnic High School, and was convicted for cocaine possession, serving six months at the Wayside County Jail.[7]
As a teenager, Snoop Dogg frequently ran into trouble with the law. Snoop Dogg was a member of the Rollin' 20 Crips gang in the Eastside of Long Beach,[11][12] although he stated in 1993 that he never joined a gang.[9] Shortly after graduating from high school, he was arrested for possession of cocaine.[7] Snoop Dogg's conviction caused him to be frequently in and out of prison for the first three years after he graduated from high school. Snoop, along with his cousins Nate Dogg and Lil' ½ Dead and friend Warren G, recorded home made tapes as a group called 213, named after the Long Beach area code at the time. One of his early solo freestyles over En Vogue's "Hold On" had made it to a mixtape which was heard by influential producer Dr. Dre, who phoned to invite him to an audition. Former N.W.A member The D.O.C. taught him how to structure his lyrics and separate the thematics into verses, hooks and chorus.[13]
[edit] 1992–93: Doggystyle
When he began recording, Broadus took the stage name Snoop Doggy Dogg. Dr. Dre began working with Snoop Dogg, first on the theme song of the 1992 film Deep Cover, and then on Dr. Dre's debut solo album The Chronic with the other members of his former starting group, Tha Dogg Pound. The huge success of Snoop Dogg's debut Doggystyle was partially because of this intense exposure.[7]
To fuel the ascendance of West Coast G-funk hip hop, the singles "Who Am I (What's My Name)?" and "Gin and Juice" reached the top ten most-played songs in the United States, and the album stayed on the Billboard charts for several months.[7] Gangsta rap became the center of arguments for censorship and labeling, with Snoop Dogg often used as an example of violent and misogynistic musicians.[14] Doggystyle, much like The Chronic, featured a host of rappers signed to or affiliated with the Death Row label including Daz Dillinger, Kurupt, Nate Dogg and others. Rolling Stone music critic Touré asserted that Snoop had a relatively soft vocal delivery compared to other rappers: "Snoop's vocal style is part of what distinguishes him: where many rappers scream, figuratively and literally, he speaks softly."[9]
A short film about Snoop Dogg's murder trial called Murder Was The Case, was released in 1994, along with an accompanying soundtrack. On July 6, 1995, Doggy Style Records, Inc., a record label founded by Snoop Dogg, was registered with the California Secretary of State as business entity number C1923139.[15]
[edit] 1996–97: Tha Doggfather
After Snoop Dogg was acquitted of murder charges on February 20, 1996, he and the mother of his son and their kennel of 20 pit bulls moved into a 5,000-square-foot (460 m2) home in the hills of Claremont, California and by August 1996 Doggy Style Records, a subsidiary of Death Row Records, signed The Gap Band's Charlie Wilson as one of the record label's first artists.[16]
However, by the time Snoop Dogg's second album, Tha Doggfather, was released in November 1996, the price of living (or sometimes just imitating) the gangsta life had become very evident. Among the many notable hip hop industry deaths and convictions were the death of Snoop Dogg's friend and labelmate 2Pac and the racketeering indictment of Death Row co-founder Suge Knight.[7] Dr. Dre had left Death Row earlier in 1996 because of a contract dispute, so Snoop Dogg co-produced Tha Doggfather with Daz Dillinger and DJ Pooh.
This album featured a distinct change of style as compared to Doggystyle, and the leadoff single, "Snoop's Upside Ya Head", featured a collaboration with Gap Band frontman Charlie Wilson. While the album sold reasonably well, it was not as successful as its predecessor. However, Tha Doggfather had a somewhat softer approach to the G-funk style. The immediate aftermath of Dr. Dre's withdrawal from Death Row Records, realizing that he was subject to an iron-clad time-based contract (i.e., that Death Row practically owned anything he produced for a number of years), Snoop Dogg refused to produce any more tracks for Suge Knight, other than the insulting "Fuck Death Row", until his contract expired.[11] In an interview with Neil Strauss in 1998, Snoop Dogg stated that though he had been given lavish gifts by his former label they had withheld royalty payments to the artist.[17]
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic said that after Tha Doggfather, Snoop Dogg began "moving away from his gangsta roots toward a calmer lyrical aesthetic":[7] for instance, Snoop participated in the 1997 Lollapalooza concert tour, which featured mainly alternative rock music. Troy J. Augusto of Variety noticed that Snoop's set at Lollapalooza attracted "much dancing, and, strangely, even a small mosh pit" in the audience.[18]
[edit] 1998–2000: No Limit, Top Dogg and Tha Last Meal
Snoop signed with Master P's No Limit Records (distributed by Priority/EMI Records) in 1998 and debuted on the label with Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told that year. His other albums from No Limit were No Limit Top Dogg in 1999 (selling over 1,503,865 copies) and Tha Last Meal in 2000 (selling over 1,000,000).[7] In 2001, his autobiography, Tha Doggfather, was published.
[edit] 2002: Paid tha Cost to Be da Bo$$
In 2002 he released the album Paid tha Cost to Be da Bo$$, on Priority/Capitol/EMI Records, selling over 1,300,000 copies. The album featured the hit singles "From tha Chuuuch to da Palace" and "Beautiful", featuring guest vocals by Pharrell. By this stage in his career, Snoop Dogg had left behind his "gangster" image and embraced a "pimp" image.
[edit] 2004–05: R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece
In 2004, Snoop signed to Geffen Records/Star Trak Entertainment both of which are distributed through Interscope Records; Star Trak is headed by producer duo The Neptunes, which produced several tracks for Snoop's 2004 release R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece. "Drop It Like It's Hot" (featuring Pharrell), the first single released from the album, was a hit and became Snoop Dogg's first single to reach number one. His third release was "Signs", featuring Justin Timberlake and Charlie Wilson, which entered the UK chart at #2. This was his highest entry ever in the UK chart. The album sold 1,724,000 copies in the U.S. alone, and most of its singles were heavily played on radio and television. Snoop Dogg joined Warren G and Nate Dogg to form the group 213 and released album The Hard Way in 2004. Debuting at No.4 on the Billboard 200 and No.1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, it included single "Groupie Luv". Together with fellow rappers Lil' Jon, Xzibit and David Banner, Snoop Dogg appeared in the music video for Korn's "Twisted Transistor".

Also, his latest song, "Real Talk", was leaked over the Internet in the summer of 2006 and a video was later released on the Internet. "Real Talk" was a dedication to former Crips leader Stanley "Tookie" Williams and a diss to Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Governor of California. Two other singles on which Snoop made a guest performance were "Keep Bouncing" by Too $hort (also with will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas) and "Gangsta Walk" by Coolio.
Snoop's 2006 album, Tha Blue Carpet Treatment, debuted on the Billboard 200 at No.5 and has sold over 850,000 copies. The album and the second single "That's That Shit" featuring R. Kelly were well received by critics. In the album, he collaborated in a video with E-40 and other West Coast rappers for his single "Candy (Drippin' Like Water)".
[edit] 2007–08: Ego Trippin'

Style and rap skills[link]
Kool Moe Dee ranks Snoop at No.33 in his book There's a God on the Mic, and says he has "an ultra-smooth, laidback delivery",[65] and "flavor-filled melodic rhyming".[66] Peter Shapiro describes Snoop's delivery as a "molasses drawl"[67] and Allmusic notes his "drawled, laconic rhyming" style.[7] Kool Moe Dee refers to Snoop's use of vocabulary, saying he "keeps it real simple...he simplifies it and he's effective in his simplicity".[68]
Snoop is known to freestyle some of his lyrics on the spot for some songs – in the book How to Rap, Lady of Rage says, "Snoop Dogg, when I worked with him earlier in his career, that's how created his stuff... he would freestyle, he wasn't a writer then, he was a freestyler,"[69] and The D.O.C. states, "Snoop's [rap] was a one take willy, but his shit was all freestyle. He hadn't written nothing down. He just came in and started busting. The song was "Tha Shiznit"—that was all freestyle. He started busting and when we got to the break, Dre cut the machine off, did the chorus and told Snoop to come back in. He did that throughout the record. That's when Snoop was in the zone then."
Peter Shapiro says that Snoop debuted on "Deep Cover" with a "shockingly original flow – which sounded like a Slick Rick born in South Carolina instead of South London"[70] and adds that he "showed where his style came from by covering Slick Rick's 'La Di Da Di'".[67] Referring to Snoop's flow, Kool Moe Dee calls him "one of the smoothest, funkiest flow-ers in the game".[66] How to Rap also notes that Snoop is known to use syncopation in his flow to give it a laidback quality,[71] as well as 'linking with rhythm' in his compound rhymes,[72] using alliteration,[73] and employing a "sparse" flow with good use of pauses.[74]
Snoop re-popularized the use of -izzle speak, particularly in the pop and hip-hop music industry.[75]
Personal life[link]
Broadus's father left the family when Broadus was three months old. Snoop married his high school sweetheart, Shante Taylor, on June 12, 1997. On May 21, 2004, he filed for divorce from Shante, citing irreconcilable differences.[76] The couple renewed their wedding vows on January 12, 2008.[77] R&B singers Brandy and Ray J are his first cousins.[78] In 2002, the rapper announced he was giving up marijuana, one of his image trademarks, for good.[79] According to his IMDb biography, Snoop is a fan of the thrash metal band Metallica[80] and performed their song "Sad But True" on the band's 2003 MTV Icon Special which is available on YouTube.[81] A DNA test read by George Lopez on Lopez Tonight revealed Snoop Dogg to be of 0% East Asian, 23% Native American, 6% European, and 71% African descent.[82]
Snoop is an avid fan of hometown teams Los Angeles Dodgers and the Los Angeles Lakers. Snoop is also an avid Pittsburgh Steelers fan.[83] and is often seen wearing Pittsburgh Steelers apparel. Snoop has mentioned that his love for the Steelers began in the 1970s during the team's dynasty years while watching the team with his grandfather growing up in L.A.[84] In the 2005 offseason, Snoop mentioned that he wanted to be an NFL head coach, "probably for the Steelers".[85] The following year, he was in attendance for the Steelers' victory in Super Bowl XL and later in Super Bowl XLIII. He is also a fan of the Oakland Raiders and Dallas Cowboys, often wearing a No.5 jersey, and has been seen at Raiders training camps.[86] He did his own free style rap based on his similarities with Tony Romo.[87][88] He is also a fan of the USC Trojans Football team. He has also shown affection for the New England Patriots, as he has been seen performing at the Gillette Stadium and picked the Patriots as the favorite to win Super Bowl XXXIX against the Eagles.[89][90] On August 6, 2009, Snoop visited the training camp of the Baltimore Ravens at McDaniel College in Westminster, Maryland.[91] He was invited by Ray Lewis the day after his concert at the Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland.
A certified football coach, Snoop Dogg has been head coach for his son's youth football teams and the John A. Rowland High School team.[92][93]
Snoop Dogg is an avid hockey fan; he sported a Pittsburgh Penguins jersey (with the name and number 'GIN AND JUICE' 94 on the back) and a jersey of the now-defunct Springfield (MA) Indians of the American Hockey League in his 1994 music video, "Gin And Juice". On the E! show, Snoop Dogg’s Father Hood, Snoop Dogg and his family received lessons on playing hockey from the Anaheim Ducks, then returning to the Honda Center to cheer on the Ducks against the Vancouver Canucks in the episode Snow in da Hood.[94]
In 2009, it was revealed that Snoop Dogg was a member of the Nation of Islam. On March 1, 2009, he made an appearance at the Nation of Islam's annual Saviours' Day holiday, where he praised minister Louis Farrakhan. Snoop claimed to be a member of the Nation of Islam, but he declined to give the date on which he joined. He also donated $1,000 to the organization.[95][96][97]
Snoop claimed in a 2006 interview with Rolling Stone magazine that unlike other hip hop artists who've superficially adopted the pimp persona, he was an actual professional pimp in 2003 and 2004, saying "That shit was my natural calling and once I got involved with it, it became fun. It was like shootin' layups for me. I was makin' 'em every time." He goes on to say that upon the advice of some of the other pimps he knew, he eventually gave up pimping to spend more time with his family.[98]
Legal issues[link]
Shortly after graduating from high school, he was arrested for possession of cocaine.[7]
While recording Doggystyle in August 1993, Snoop Dogg was arrested in connection with the death of Phillip Woldermarian, a member of a rival gang who was shot and killed by Snoop's bodyguard, McKinley Lee; Snoop was charged with murder along with Lee as he was driving the vehicle from which the shooting had commenced. Snoop and Lee were defended by Johnnie Cochran.[99] Both Snoop and Lee were acquitted; Lee was acquitted on grounds of self-defense, but Snoop Dogg remained entangled in the legal battles around the case for three years.[100]
In July 1993, Snoop was stopped for a traffic violation and a firearm was found by police while conducting a search of his car. In February 1997, he pleaded guilty to possession of a handgun and was ordered to record three public service announcements, pay a $1,000 fine, and serve three years' probation.[101][102]
In May 1998, Snoop Dogg was fined and arrested for a misdemeanor of marijuana possession.[103]
In October 2001, Snoop Dogg was arrested again for a misdemeanor of marijuana possession.[103] In 2002 he pleaded no contest and was fined a total of $398.30 and received a suspended 30-day jail sentence.[104]
Snoop Dogg, Tha Dogg Pound, and The Game were sued for assaulting a fan on stage at a May 2005 concert at the White River Amphitheatre in Auburn, Washington. The accuser, Richard Monroe, Jr., claimed he was beaten by the artists' entourage while mounting the stage.[105] He alleged that he reacted to an "open invite" to come on stage. Before he could, Snoop’s bodyguards grabbed him and he was beaten unconscious by crewmembers, including the rapper and producer Soopafly; Snoop and The Game were included in the suit for not intervening. The lawsuit focuses on a pecuniary claim of $22 million in punitive and compensatory damages, battery, negligence, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.[106] The concerned parties appeared in court in April 2009.
On April 26, 2006, Snoop Dogg and members of his entourage were arrested after being turned away from British Airways' first class lounge at Heathrow Airport. Snoop and his party were not allowed to enter the lounge because some of the entourage were flying first class, other members in economy class. After the group was escorted outside, they vandalized a duty-free shop by throwing whiskey bottles. Seven police officers were injured in the midst of the disturbance. After a night in jail, Snoop and the other men were released on bail on April 27, but he was unable to perform at the Premier Foods People's Concert in Johannesburg on the same day. As part of his bail conditions, he had to return to the police station in May. The group has been banned by British Airways for "the foreseeable future."[107][108] When Snoop Dogg appeared at a London police station on May 11, he was cautioned for affray under Section 4 of the Public Order Act for use of threatening words or behavior.[109] On May 15, the Home Office decided that Snoop Dogg should be denied entry to the United Kingdom for the foreseeable future due to the incident at Heathrow as well as his previous convictions in the United States for drugs and firearms offenses.[110][111] Snoop Dogg's visa card was rejected by local authorities on March 24, 2007 because of the Heathrow incident.[112] A concert at London's Wembley Arena on March 27 went ahead with Diddy (with whom he toured Europe) and the rest of the show. However the decision affected four more British performances in Cardiff, Manchester and Glasgow[113] and Budapest (due to rescheduling).[114] As of March 2010, Snoop Dogg has been allowed back into the UK.[1]
On September 27, 2006, Snoop Dogg was detained at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California by airport security, after airport screeners found a collapsible police baton in Snoop's carry-on bag. The baton was confiscated but Snoop was allowed to board the flight. He has been charged with various weapons violations stemming from this incident. Donald Etra, Snoop's lawyer, told deputies the baton was a prop for a musical sketch. Snoop was sentenced to three years' probation and 160 hours of community service starting on September 20, 2007.[115]
Snoop Dogg was arrested again on October 26, 2006 at Bob Hope Airport in Burbank, California while parked in a passenger loading zone. Approached by airport security for a traffic infraction, he was found in possession of marijuana and a firearm, according to a police statement. He was transported to Burbank Police Department Jail, booked, and released on $35,000 bond. He faced firearm and drug possession charges on December 12 at Burbank Superior Court.[116]
He was again arrested on November 29, 2006, after performing on The Tonight Show, for possession of marijuana and a firearm.[117]
Snoop was arrested again on March 12, 2007 in Stockholm, Sweden after performing in a concert with P. Diddy in Stockholm's Globe Arena after he and a female companion reportedly "reeked" of marijuana. They were released four hours later after providing a urine sample. The results on urine determined whether charges would be pressed. However the rapper denied all charges.[118][119]
On April 26, 2007, the Australian Department of Immigration and Citizenship banned him from entering the country on character grounds, citing his prior criminal convictions. He had been scheduled to appear at the MTV Australia Video Music Awards on April 29, 2007.[120] Australian Department of Immigration and Citizenship lifted the ban in September 2008 and had granted him visa to tour Australia. DIAC said "In making this decision, the department weighed his criminal convictions against his previous behaviour while in Australia, recent conduct – including charity work – and any likely risk to the Australian community ... We took into account all relevant factors and, on balance, the department decided to grant the visa."[121]
Snoop Dogg's many legal issues forced San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom to withdraw his plan to issue a proclamation to the rapper.[122]
Snoop Dogg was banned from Parkpop, a festival in the Netherlands on June 27, 2010, where he was scheduled to perform. The mayor and law enforcement officials asked organizers of the festival to find an artist more “open and friendly” to play the event.[123]
Snoop Dogg was arrested again on January 7, 2012 for possession of Marijuana charge after Border control agents discovered a small amount of marijuana on his tour bus. Snoop Dogg was stopped at the same Sierra Blanca, Texas, checkpoint where country singer Willie Nelson was arrested for marijuana possession in 2010. The agents conducted a routine inspection of his tour bus at the U.S.– Mexico border checkpoint, east of El Paso, Texas and thought they smelled marijuana. Snoop Dogg was issued a citation for possession of drug paraphernalia, released and given a court date of Friday, January 20, 2012.[citation needed]
