Freedom Suite:

(I) FREEDOM

I was born in the dark
With no light that shined on me
With no silver spoon in my mouth
I am strong, with good heart
And despite the crimes I see
I will go far from doom and work it out

But in your mind all I do
Is keep wandering and gathering, spear chucking and dancing
You imply I must prove to you that I deserve freedom
Well I deserve freedom

The chains bind my feet, but they can not bind my soul
Which is free to live to love and to choose
I will claim victory throughout suffering and woe
You will see what we give of us to you

Still in your mind all we do
Is keep wandering and gathering, spear chucking and dancing
You imply we must prove to you that we deserve freedom
We deserve freedom

Coz I am not hurting you
So why keep hurting

(a right to live
A right to love
A right to choose
For me, not you)

I can live anywhere that I want
I can love anyone that I want
I should have the right to choose

(a right to live
A right to love
A right to choose
For me, not you)

Although you don't want me to live
I am existing
And you keep resisting
But I keep persisting

(a right to live
A right to love
A right to choose
For me, not you)

Wanting, wanting, wanting, wanting to be free

(II) WANTING
To achieve the goals I've been searching for
Heading towards them coz freedom I've been working for
To break the shackles that ties me and binds me
To leave all problems and troubles way behind me
To be free, but freedom it begins
Within the self so don't shelf self discipline
To be wanting but lacking in the energy
Don't let your self be your own worst enemy
To see the light at the end of the tunnel
The search for freedom it starts by being humble
So separate from materialistic values
Pick up yourself and stand firm like a statue
Wanting to make the dream become reality
To right my wrongs and fix the flaws and the fallacys
That maybe makes me unsavoury as a person
Thirst goes unquenched and problems still worsen
A want for freedom wont gel with being complacent
Said you was free but I sensed a false statement
Wanting to be or not to be That is the question
Do you agree or disagree with the suggestion
That freedom don't depend on money or what you got
A rich mans mind can also be chained and locked
Up in the mind lies the road to the freedom
Negative thoughts weed 'em,
positive thoughts breed 'em
Get yourself involved in the activity
Feel the rhapsody of freedom from captivity

IM WANTING
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be free enough to do my thing

To unlock the door to a closed mind
To broaden scopes and horizons not to be blind
To walk down the straight and narrow path
That leads to freedom
I believe this is my only task
To join others who also want to see
The direction they're headed and view it with clarity
Not to be tied to things that held them back
And wallow in self pity to reveal a lack
Of get up and go
Freedom is just a stones throw away
Not wanting to be lead astray
Came to terms with this coz it was my choice ta
Seek out my freedom now the world is my oyster
But... motivation this is a nescessity
Self expression an ingredient of the recipie of FREEDOM
Which I look upon as a meal
and the flavours of the meal only YOU can reveal
To keep on moving on from strength to strength
No not half step but trek to the full length
Of the freedom course, using the main source
Of inner strength mind powers a powerful force
To leave behind the bag that failed to uplift me
To move on swiftly and make these chains history
So Get to grips with this task with a vengeance
And throw away all these fragments and remnant
Of all the times I lacked in self belief
So I turned a new leaf
And found peace
And am released
Into FREEDOM

(III) TO BE FREE

a right to live
a right to love
a right to chose

for ME
not YOU
