All About Freedom

The fog is lifting 
I'm up there with the clouds 
The truth is coming at me
It's getting kind of loud
I'm telling everybody
"Hey", it's great to be alive
It's a crazy kind of feeling
When the truth arrives.

The truth within your spirit 
It is written in your heart
It was given to you by fate,
Of you to be a part
So let that knowledge set you free
There ain't no chains to bind you
And when it sinks into you deep
All shadows, they fade too.

Freedoms not about your wealth
Or anything you do
It's not just about who you are
The one the world calls you
It's about only freedom,
The act of being,
The only authenticity 
That one's poor life being free...

It's always about being you
And not letting others views
Make you something you are not,
Cause then you cannot lose
It's all about you being who you are 
And loving all of you 
Oh freedom that's my destination 
That's where I'm heading to.
