Freedom

I won't let you down
I will not give you up
But I have some faith in the sound
Is the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So, please don't give me up
Because I would really, really love to stick around, oh yeah

Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race, a prettier face

Brand-new clothes and a big fat place on your rock and roll TV
But today the way you play the game is not the same, no way
Think I'm gonna get me some happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so

There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man

All we have to do now is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see is that I don't belong to you and you don't belong to me, yeah
Freedom, freedom, freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom, freedom, freedom
We've gotta give for what you take

Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big shot good time band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy, yeah, yeah

We won the race, we got all the place
Went back home got a brand-new face for the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change, oh yeah
Now I'm gonna get myself happy

All we have to do now is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see is that I don't belong to you and you don't belong to me
Freedom, freedom, freedom
We've gotta give for what you take
Freedom, freedom, freedom
We've gotta give for what you take
