I am born to be a free bird!

To sing, To fly

To go as much as I care

To go as much as high

To do what I love

And do it at my pace

I just don't want to compete with them

It has been and it's just my own race

I don't want to answer anyone

My accountability is to the mirror

If I can look to it straight in the eye

There is nothing out there that can make me shy

My convictions are worth a fight

If it does not make us happy

How does anything become right?!

So often I don't seem to fit in

Never ever have followed the herd

Something inside me keeps reminding me

that I am born

I am born to be a free bird

I am waiting for the day I will break free

Either I will live or I will die

But I see only this one life

And I don't want to be caged

I am born to be a free bird and I want to fly
