In the days of love and honor I was a fool for love Gave my heart and soul But it was hardly enough It ain't love Unless it brings you to your knees It ain't salvation If you're still begging to be free If your ship hasn't come in

So go but be kind You have luck on your side Born into a family with food in their bellies And a car for them to drive People sleeping on the concrete Still smile behind their signs So go now be happy and be free You have so much time If you go chances

And this bird you can not change But, if I stayed here with you, girl Things just couldn't be the same Cause I'm as free as a bird now Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Lord knows, I can't change If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be

We got that bad love, but it taste like medicine I never had love, so I learned to settle quick I guess I never thought I'd have to choose Between paradise and you And now I'm free, I'm free, yeah Now I'm free I still creep on your 'Gram, oh See you with

Instigated by the stars A little wood to keep it burning Fascinated by it all Behind the wheel against the road next to you The central coast The central thought within my mind Is how to stay within these lines But still be free

I'll set you free if you follow me The hope is still not gone Somewhere behind the clouds Reach out touch the hand of God How far until the edge? These wrong ways are mine But the whole world can just go to hell This life is killing me My feelings inside

Caught a few cases, I been on the road but overall a nigga still free I done been robbed I know how it feel, a nigga gon' have to come kill me I been through it all, I came this far how a nigga not gon' feel me I give all my problems to God Let him

And this bird you can not change But, if I stayed here with you, girl Things just couldn't be the same Cause I'm as free as a bird now Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Lord knows, I can't change If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be

So go but be kind You have luck on your side Born into a family with food in their bellies And a car for them to drive People sleeping on the concrete Still smile behind their signs So go now be happy and be free You have so much time If you go chances

The fire, the fire still burns Fire, fire, still burns You thought it was gone but the fire goes on And l thought you knew me, l told you before Till l settle the score that I'll never run free L have enough pain and anger in my brain to last many
