How is a bird, a free bird
When it's pushed up behind those bars
Though the bars are smooth and fine
Food and drink in time
Bedtime, no crime, full of fame, all gain
A shade I see, of melancholy
A distant wish, to be set free
How is a bird, a free bird
When it's pushed behind bars
The babe in the womb
The vapour in the clouds
The truth underground
Yeah nothing to be proud
The fire of the Earth
The scent of the rose
The voice of the birds
Come out singing the blows come out
Sing out the blows
Liberty gives agility
To every human being (fly free bird)
Liberty not hostility
To every human soul (fly)
Break down all the walls
Blow away all the doors (fly)
Open the gates to your...
Liberty gives agility
To every human being (fly free bird)
Liberty not hostility
To every human soul (fly)
Break down all the walls
Blow away all the doors (fly)
Open the gates to your
Life
The stairway to heaven
Life
The highway to hell
Life
All that can wait
Just open your life
Just open those gates yeah
The dams've opened, full and wide
To liberate the water that's in its ride
Roses've blossom
Radiating true awesome
But it ain't happen in autumn, when it hits rock bottom
Rain drops to dance, to dance as drunk
To make the dark clouds, relieved and junk
Tie up all the tyrants who hide the truth
Who hide behind the walls while we die with ruth
The babe in the womb
The vapour in the clouds
The truth underground
Yeah nothing to be proud
The fire of the Earth
The scent of the rose
The voice of the birds
Come out singing the blows, come out
Sing out the blows
Liberty gives agility
To every human being (fly free bird)
Liberty not hostility
