I wish i knew how, it would feel to be free I wish i could break, all the chains holding me And i wish i could say, all the things that i should say Say 'em loud, say 'em clear, for the whole world to hear I wish i could share, all the love that's in my heart Remove all the bars, that keep us apart And i wish you could know, what it means to be me Then you'd see and agree, that every man should be free I wish i could give, i'm longing to give And i wish i could live, like i'm longing to live And i wish i could do, all the things that i can do Though i'm way overdue, i'd be starting to move Well i wish i could be, like a bird up in the sky How sweet it would be, if i found i could fly Well i'd soar to the sun, then i'd look down at the sea Then i'd sing cause i'd know Yes i'd sing cause i'd know Sing cause i know I know i'm free, yeah Yes i know i'm free...
