They'll never know just who you are But they can turn your bright star dark They'll try to hold your spirit down Couldn't do it then, can't do it now They'll try to tell you who to be But they can't change the way you feel Can't tame a wild heart You are free, free Free as the grass that's right under your feet Free as the sky underneath your wings Free as the wind and the river flowing to the sea Free as the feeling they can't take from you No walls can keep your heart from your dream Free as just knowing that you were born to, to be Free, free They'll try to tell you where to go Try to put chains around your soul But they could never hold you back Cause you were built too strong for that Can't tame a wild heart Free as the grass that's right under your feet Free as the sky underneath your wings Free as the wind and the river flowing to the sea Free Oh, no one's ever putting out that fire inside Feeling free's the only way you feel alive With the wind at your back, running fast and free Free as the grass that's right under your feet Free as the sky underneath your wings Free as the wind and the river flowing to the sea Free as the feeling they can't take from you No walls can keep your heart from your dream Free as just knowing that you were born to, to be Free, free Free, free Oh, free
