Verse
I Am Free
Jeremy Hurtt•
the first of what's coming
Verse 1
The water you touch in a river that's runningIs the last of what's passedAnd the first of what's comingTrue knowledge exists in knowing you know nothing, they sayAn unexamined life is not worth the livingYour living's what you getBut the life is in the givingDo what you feel to be right - you’ll be criticized anyway.
Chorus
X2-I am freeBecause I knowThat I aloneAm morallyResponsibleFor everythingThat I doThat I doThat I doThat I doThat I do
Verse 2
Life and freedom don't exist because men made lawsLife and liberty initiallyAre society's causeWith a place to stand, a man can move the Earth, they sayDark can't drive out dark - only light can do thatAnd when freedom takes rootIt's a fast growing plantA thousand miles starts with a first step along your way
Chorus
X2-I am freeBecause I knowThat I aloneAm morallyResponsibleFor everythingThat I doThat I doThat I doThat I doThat I do
Verse 3
If you deny others freedom, then you don't deserve itAnd it's a fact that a ballotIs deadlier than a bulletHe who dares not offend cannot be honest, they say.Life is really simple if it's not complicatedNever change directionAlways end up where you're headedThe arc may be long, but it goes on to justice some day
Chorus
X2-I am freeBecause I knowThat I aloneAm morallyResponsibleFor everythingThat I doThat I doThat I doThat I doThat I do
Verse 4
A well-armed society is a place that's politeBut the power of stupidityIs one hell of a mightYou can have peace or freedom, one at a time, they sayEverything's impossible until it's been doneThousands sway by emotionBefore logic sways oneYou can't teach a pig to sing, you'll just annoy his ass all day
Chorus
X2-I am freeBecause I knowThat I aloneAm morallyResponsibleFor everythingThat I doThat I doThat I doThat I doThat I do
