Free Happiness
Chasing Freedom: TerryJosiah's Anthem to Liberation and Joy
Lyrics
Some say freedom is free
Expressing a common belief that freedom is easily obtained.
But I tend to disagree
Disagreeing with the notion that freedom comes without challenges.
I've been on the battlefield with the enemy
Describing personal experience in a metaphorical "battlefield" with opposition.
Neither one willing to bring about peace
Highlighting a lack of willingness from both sides to achieve peace.
I want to be free...
Expressing a strong desire for personal freedom.
I know freedom is won
Acknowledging that true freedom is earned through struggle, possibly implying a military reference.
By the barrel of gun
Suggesting a connection between freedom and the use of force.
I've seen cultures clash in my rearview mirror
Reflecting on the clashes between different cultures, observed through a metaphorical "rearview mirror."
While battling what's in the windshield of life
Experiencing life's challenges and conflicts symbolized as obstacles in the "windshield."
I wanna be free
Reiterating the strong desire for freedom.
I wanna be
-I wanna be
-I wanna be free
-Happiness will make you say
Linking happiness to expression, suggesting that happiness prompts vocalization.
Happiness will make you say
-Happiness will make you say
-Ohhhhhh
-Happiness will make you say
-Some say freedom is free
Repeating the earlier sentiments about the cost of freedom and the yearning for it.
But I tend to disagree - no, I don't agree, no
