FREE not free
I'm FREE not free, floating in my own mind
Touching my inner stars Drifting on my mental skies Watching the ground get smaller as I soar even higher Bobbing my head to my visual sound track My spiritual cockpit seat vibrates with the beat as I fly Far away from where they can touch me Losing myself so they can't find me Free from their perceptions of deception Riding with only my exceptions I climb higher on my pride as I make my get away I'M FREE not free, no price ever printed on me Neither can my life be taken Even if I'm murdered my soul will still escape Lies can be made up about me yet the truth can't be replaced Because my FREEDOM was always mine And real FREEDOM is always FREE For me it's forever free nor could they steal my liberty My destination is my own but you can fly along side me Piggy back on my momentum draft my speed to go a little faster I share my compass with you so we all can be FREE BE FREE never just free, control your own trip of life Throw that GPS out the window and follow you map within Find what you call FREEDOM, and fault it from beginning to end.
