You looked at me,
Said I could be free.
But I still must fall to society.
So I looked at you and said,"Leave me be,
I'm too smart for society."
True freedom cannot be reached,
By living in this time and place.
It may not be impossible,
But it's real hard to be truly free.

Free
You looked at me,
Said I could be free.
But I still must fall to society.
So I looked at you and said,"Leave me be,
I'm too smart for society."
True freedom cannot be reached,
By living in this time and place.
It may not be impossible,
But it's real hard to be truly free.
