A friend of mine said: You are just a prisoner
Cause those around you just won't set you free
That's not the kind of person I envisioned
Of who I am and what I need to be

His words sent shivers through me
So strange the way he knew me
Now this is written in my soul

Take a hit of freedom
Gotta breathe it in deep
Gonna make you feel so good
Take a hit of freedom
Gotta breathe it in deep
Gonna make you feel so good
Take a hit of freedom, so good

Some people think I'm shy and introspective
They've just gotta open up their eyes and see
I shield myself avoiding their rejection
But now my inner strength will set me free

I'm not saying I am a hero
But I can make my own road
I'm on the rise and feeling free

Take a hit of freedom
Gotta breathe it in deep
Gonna make you feel so good
Take a hit of freedom, so good

This way, that way
Hooked on a feeling
Backward, forward
My mind is reeling
Just can't help it
Can't stop believing
I'm feeling free

His words sent shivers through me
So strange the way he knew me
Now this is written in my soul

Take a hit of freedom
Gotta breathe it in deep
Gonna make you feel so good
Take a hit of freedom
Gotta breathe it in deep
Gonna make you feel so good

This way, that way
Hooked on a feeling
Backward, forward
My mind is reeling
Just can't help it
Can't stop believing
I'm feeling free

Take a hit of freedom
Gotta breathe it in deep
Gonna make you feel so good
Take a hit of freedom, so good
Take a hit of freedom
Gotta breathe it in deep
Gonna make you feel so good
