They'll never know just who you are
But they can turn your bright start dark
They'll try to hold you spirit down
Couldn't do it then, can't do it now
They'll try to tell you who to be
But they can't change the way you feel
Can't tame a wild heart, you are free
Free

Free as the grass that's right under your feet
Free as the sky underneath your wings
Free as the wind and the river flowin' to the sea
Free as the fellin' they can't take from you
No walls can keep your heart from your dream
Free as just knowing that you were born to
To be free (free), free (free)

They'll try to tell you where to go
Try to put chains around your soul
But they could never hold you back
'Cause you were built too strong for that
Can't tame a wild heart

Free as the grass that's right under your feet
Free as the sky underneath your wings
Free as the wind and the river flowin' to the sea
Free (free)

Oh, no one's ever putting out that fire inside
Feelin' free's the only way you feel alive
With the wind at your back, running fast and free

Free as the grass that's right under your feet
Free as the sky underneath your wings
Free as the wind and the river flowin' to the sea
Free as the fellin' they can't take from you
No walls can keep your heart from your dream
Free as just knowing that you were born to
To be free (free), free (free)

Free, free, free
Oh, free
