I'm Free

We come a long way But I got a long way to go Dangerous dude down in Louisiana I don't do no more I used to carry water 15 miles 50 cent a day It's a shame A boy Nine years old Had to work so hard every day I used to pick cotton in the cotton field Where I used to live Don't mind picking cotton y'all If I own the cotton fields Take a look in the mirror Tell me, what do you see? What you see in the mirror? Could see me I'm free I'm free I'm free Look at me I got the shackles off my feet, chains off my mind I'll tell y'all I'm free I'm free I'm free Look at me Got the shackles off my feet, chains of my mind Ain't got no boss hounding me Out here on the road I'm fancy free I don't need no politician telling me you what to do I'm free to vote, and I can vote where I want to Someday, we all gonna find Get the shackle of the feet, chain of your mind Look at my eyes Tell me, what do you see? Can't you see the freedom in me? Tell y'all I'm free?
