Everyone has a song
Everyone has a song but most people are afraid to sing it, mention it, or even dare to dream about it. So they listen while other people sing their own songs and never get heard. I’m no musician but I wish that I would take the time to be one because my song rocks hard and sets me free just from writing it on paper. My challenge is…What’s your song?
Here it is :
I WILL BE FREE
I am a man born of circumstance
I have dealt with the life given to me
Never once have I fell…. and not crawled out of the living hell
that sometimes life has handed to me
Now you’re standing there with that shitty grin
and you think that you’ve got it all over me
Well I’m not your chump or anybody’s punk…
andΒ I will always be free!
– I’ll stand and deliver
– My soul will fly free
– Can’t make me shiver
– My soul will fly free
All your fucking rules
say what I can not do
but I’m telling you…
I will be free
Though- you-beat-me-down-
and- you- brow- beat- me…
I will be free
-I will stand and deliver
-my soul will fly free
-can’t make me shiver
-my soul will fly free
‘Cause I’m a man of circumstance…
I have dealt with the life handed to me
Never once have I fell
and not crawled out of the living hell…
That sometime life has handed to me.

I like it Luisydomonique! It has that tough never quit attitude that I take towards life…Rock on you two! Thanks for the song share!
I agree, sing that freedom song…it is awesome !! xx
Again, a fine sentiment … this is simply wonderful … applaude your sprit … Keep singing! π
Yes! Maintain the rage (and suitably offset by the pic of the anarchic Iggy π
LOL! I’m glad you noticed the correlation….Most people do not know who Iggy is.
Its good to see you weight.
i think in my case it’s more about the music than about the lyrics of a specific song – but one that always lifts my spirit is George Michael’s “I feel good”- and if i wanna get wild it’s “Over the hills” with Nightwish π
I find it interesting to see what different people say. I’m the kind of guy that likes to have a ball even if I’m just entertaining myself…(drinking and singing on the singstar in my…well you get the picture). I believe that people are afraid to cut loose and have fun and its too bad because it makes for a crappy life!
I love the pic of Iggy next to the poem…perfect!
I love your song…I’m humming it now… π
LOL! Be free my dear! Hmmm… it would be interesting hearing your song. I would imagine something like Lennon coming from you. I wonder what it might really be like Gayle?
I wonder too. Maybe something by the Moody Blues… Lennon is good too!
