| Some fall behind with every step they take
|
| Some are gaining ground with every move they make
|
| My own freedom has been taken from me
|
| The day that I was born they stripped away my dignity
|
| Forever cursed to live a life in shame
|
| No matter what I do to them it’s all the same
|
| But I know that I can tear down this wall
|
| Break the spell and prove to you all
|
| That I will travel like the wind and waves
|
| Over oceans vast and valley’s wide
|
| I feel I’m finally free
|
| Free to be who I want to be
|
| I’m free to be me
|
| In reality I’m a prisoner in chains
|
| But in my dreams I roam across open plains
|
| By the laws of men my body is bound
|
| Yet deep inside of me a strength can be found
|
| No 50 lashes, no bloodshed will wear me down
|
| My lust, my hunger is rooted deep in the ground
|
| I’ll plunge headlong through these times of strife
|
| ‘Cause one day I’ll break away on this I’ll bet my life
|
| That I will travel like the wind and waves
|
| Over oceans vast and valley’s wide
|
| I feel I’m finally free
|
| Free to be who I want to be
|
| I’m free to be me
|
| I choose to believe
|
| That I can become whatever I want to be
|
| I can’t be wrong
|
| My faith is strong
|
| I can’t be wrong
|
| I will travel like the wind and waves
|
| Over oceans vast and valley’s wide
|
| I feel I’m finally free
|
| Free to be who I want to be
|
| I will travel like the wind and waves
|
| Over oceans vast and valley’s wide
|
| I feel I’m finally free
|
| Free to be who I want to be
|
| I’m free to be me |
