Born Free - D'Mixmasters

Fast, on a rough road riding

High, through the mountains climbing

Twisting, turning further from my home

Young, like a new moon rising

Fierce, through the rain and lightning

Wandering out into this great unknown

And I don’t want no one to cry

But, tell them if I don’t survive

I was born free!

I was born free!

I was born free, born free

Free, like a river raging

Strong as the wind I’m facing

Chasing dreams and racing father time

Deep like the grandest canyon

Wild like an untamed stallion

If you can’t see my heart you must be blind

You can knock me down and watch me bleed

But you can’t keep no chains on me

I was born free!

I was born free!

I was born free, born free

And I’m not good at long goodbyes

But look down deep into my eyes

I was born free

Calm, facing danger

Lost, like an unknown stranger

Grateful for my time with no regrets

Close to my destination

Tired, frail and aching

Waiting patiently for the sun to set

And when it’s done, believe that I

Will yell it from that mountain high

I was born free!

I was born free!

I was born free, born free

I will bow to the shining sea

And celebrate God’s grace on thee
