Freedom

I'm no stranger to the thick smoke of a bar And heart chained to a bottle of whiskey And I've held strangers in my arms To pull apart the bars Because I couldn't find the key I've search high and low Been to hell and back Been a prisoner to my soul And all I know is that The price of being free It don't come cheap That's why people fight for it, rise for it Burn up the night for it Cry for it, pine for it Cross rivers wide for it Once you've held the truth There's nothing you won't do And when I look into your eyes I know why people died for it Freedom Loving you feels like freedom You're the red, the white, the blue The stars that cover the scars When we broke the shackles And I've never been to war before But your boots there on the floor Are proof that I've won the battle And all you had to give to me Was the gift of being free That's why people fight for it, rise for it Burn up the night for it Cry for it, pine for it Cross rivers wide for it Once you've held the truth There's nothing you won't do And when I look into your eyes I know why people died for it Freedom Loving you feels like freedom I've searched high and low Been to hell and back Been a prisoner to my soul And all I know is that The price of being free It don't come cheap That's why people fight for it, rise for it Burn up the night for it Cry for it, pine for it Cross rivers wide for it Once you've held the truth There's nothing you won't do And when I look into your eyes I know why people died for it Freedom Loving you feels like freedom Oh freedom Loving you feels like freedom Freedom Loving you feels like freedom
