    Freedom of Me

    I've gone the distance,
    I've seen my castles fall
    I've bled persistence,
    I've nearly lost it all

    I've gone the distance
    This life has been a war
    Defiant resistance
    My soul's worth fighting for

    To be -
    Free...
    To be-
    Me...

    They tell me I should change
    Why cant I just be me?
    I guess the world's not big on -
    Individuality...

    What life has tested
    This life cant break
    Want to be rested
    What more will it take?

    Will it take my blood
    Will it take my soul
    Face in the mud
    But I will still crawl

    To be -
    Free...
    To be-
    Me...

    They tell me I should change
    Why cant I just be me?
    I guess the world's not big on -
    Individuality...

    cool rainz, is it one of your songs already? It should be. I have 2 sons that are musicians and they would dig Freedom of me as well. Looking forward to more! Ginga

    no the worlds not they all call for it and when one shows true individuality they are turned away just be true to you man that all any of us can do

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
