Free Me

Free me
Let me go
Let me live how I want to
Even if I don’t know what is best for me
Let me be free
Free to make mistakes
Free to try to be great
Free to do what I want
Free to live a life that will haunt me
Free to explore infinity
And free to nosedive into creativity
Free to be me
Whatever that means
Free to fly
Free to die
Free to get high
Free to lie
Give me freedom
And see what I do with it
Give me money
And watch me burn it
Money isn’t really freedom
Freedom is not depending on the dollar
Money is the collar
That wraps around our neck
Willing to die for a check
Willing to give up all self-respect
Let me be free
Free to piss away my time
Free to get lost in my mind
Free to burn all my bridges
Free to try out several ways of living
Free to ask for help
Or free to melt
Free to create
Free to hate
Free to try to love
Free to believe in an afterlife floating up above
Free to express
Free to leave my house a mess
Free to get very drunk
Free to fuck
Free to cry
Free to be alone
Free to find a home
Let me be free
Free to ride the tides
Free to make music
Free to piss away talent
Free to believe anything
Free to find meaning
Just don’t try to cage me
Or tie me down
Don’t count on me giving up
And to look for a way out
Because I know I can be free to get up for another round
And go around and around and around
Again and again
Free to escape from this dungeon that you locked me in
Free to burst out from deep within
Yes, just let me be free to be me again.
