Every night as I close my eyes to the sounds of gunshots and babies crying,
Another politician's telling me lies, and on the news another soldiers dying.
Tell me what the fighting does? We've even got a war on love. See,
we've got enough to shed some blood but not enough to end poverty.

[Hook]
I remember the sunset, a multicolored sky and open spaces,
Before the bloodshed and the battle-scars on our faces.

[Chorus]
I wanna be free,
Yeah, yeah
I wanna be free.

I wanna be free,
Yeah, yeah,
I wanna be free.
---

I'm going through this life trying to survive the struggle.
It's like my are tied, handcuffed to trouble.
With no solutions, we just stir the pot,
I wish there was a way we could rewind the clock.
We sit back and watch the flames grow higher,
Because our denial only feeds the fire.

[Hook]
I remember the sunset, a multicolored sky and open spaces,
Before the bloodshed and the battle-scars on our faces.
---
[Chorus]
I wanna be free,
Yeah, yeah
I wanna be free.

I wanna be free,
Yeah, yeah,
I wanna be free.

[Break]

[Chorus]
I wanna be free,
Yeah, yeah
I wanna be free.

I wanna be free,
Yeah, yeah,
I wanna be free.

I wanna be

I wanna be free.
