I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free

John Legend


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...
