歌詞
I can see the world a-changin'
I can see it rearrangin'
Happenin' before my very eyes
Everywhere the cement's growin'
In the street the traffic's flowin'
Ruining the air up in the skies
Is it no surprise?
I want to get away and live my life
Near the rivers and trees
I want to spend my days making rhyme
And be free
And be free
And be free
I can hear the cities calling
Climb and now you feel you're falling
Beckoning for all of us to see
See the deep in the cement hollow
Reaching out for those who follow
Hungering on far too many lies
Is it no surprise?
I want to get away and live my life
Near the rivers and trees
I want to spend my days making rhyme
And be free
And be free
And be free
From the roots of thought
I've had an inner vision
I've seen the universe unfold
I can hear the school bell ringing
From the yard the children singing
Merrily, life is but a dream
In the street there are older brothers
Selling drugs and shit to others
Hating those whose songs have turned to cries
Is it no surprise?
I want to get away and live my life
Near the rivers and trees
I want to spend my days making rhyme
And be free
And be free
And be free
Thank you
