Free

My mind is free
My eyes can see
My thoughts are fresh
No more stress
The chains are down
I am grown.

I was just a big baby boy
No more playing with a toy
Now I think straight like a man
For I have been able to learn
Feeling so alive and strong
Great wisdom I have acquired along.

My heart is hard as a stone
My chords sing a different tone
The past is gone, tomorrow will come
Let day light find me home
I will plant new seeds
That will bring good yields.

The past I will forget
The future I will perfect
I will play my part
Tomorrow will be a start
In my heart
I will never welcome hurt.
