Free to Be

Haven't you ever had a dream she said
What do you want most before you're dead
I admit the question took me by surprise
Bringing both laughter and tears to my eyes

Cruel voices began to ring inside my head
Distant echoes from the land where I was bred
I remember fighting for every crumb
Just to tell myself that I was someone

Someone who mattered
Someone who deserved to be
Someone who mattered
Someone who was free, free to be

How could I ever make her understand
All I ever needed was smacked from my hand
Some things were meant for everyone else
What is hope for someone like myself

Someone who mattered
Someone who deserved to be
Someone who mattered
Someone who was free, free to be

You got what you deserved and that was always used
Whatever will be will be tell me what's the use

I know that man does not live on bread alone
Sometimes you don't even have that to count on
What I want more than heaven above
What can you teach me about love
