Free
I will not succumb to who you want me to be.
I will be like the eagle, agile and free.
I will sing my song of liberty.
I am who I am.
I am who I will be.
I will not fight when I am wrong.
I will not give in just to belong.
I will forever be strong.
I am who I am.
My heart will sing its song.
I will be wise, cunning, and clever.
I will speak my mind to whomever.
Sometime I may bite my tongue but however
I am who I am.
My soul will fight forever.
I will give respect when it is due.
I will be wise in all I do.
My word will never be those you misconstrue.
I am who I am.
My words will always be true.
Sometimes I may not be inclined to agree.
There is much in the world I have to see.
I will be like the eagle, agile and free.
I am who I am.
I am who I will be.
