Some people think they're free
if they get to do just what they want to do
and do nothing, nothing else
Some people want to lead their life
others want to follow but it's ok
cuz every man got to walk his own way
Don't be hesitating
there's no contemplating
no there is no waiting - you got to live free
Wealth ain't necessary
some think it's too scary
quite the contrary - you got to live free
Some people complicate their lives
others keep it simple
and that's a little bit closer to the truth
that we all seek
We pledge allegiance to anything
that takes our mind away
Freedom ain't cheap, naw freedom ain't easy to get
Don't let go, some let go
Don't be hesitating
there's no contemplating
no there is no waiting you got to live free
Wealth ain't necessary
some think it's too scary
quite the contrary you got to live free
All them things you say
all them things you do
they won't mean a thing if you don't live free
All them things we say
all them things we do
they won't mean a thing if we don't live free
