To Be Free Lyrics

If you want to get a gift for me

Buy me a house in the old country

Give me a car that I can drive away

Or give me a reason to make me stay

Cause I ain't never understood before

The human obsession with tryna soar

But now I really wanna fly away

So give me a reason to make me stay

Or I'll go

Off to build my home

On foreign lands near ocean roads

I'll do it on my own, I'll do it all alone

If that what it means to be free

Please sir can you explain to me

Why vivid dreams ain't reality

Cause I can see how this would all work out

But it works me up when it lets me down and

God I hope that you're having a laugh

Cause all my plans ain't come to pass but

Looking back it's working out better

Just give me the strength to hold out when pressure comes down

Down on me

So I'll go

Off to build my home

On foreign lands near ocean roads

I'll do it on my own, I'll do it all alone

If that what it means to be free

There's a road we travel on

You think you know it but you got it all wrong

It'll bring you your way and bring me mine

Don't try and tell me where to go

Or I'll go

Off to build my home

On foreign lands near ocean roads

I'll do it on my own, I'll do it all alone

If that what it means to be free
