Now that these shackles are all gone
I feel energized to sing a new song
Rarely if ever I've felt this mellow
There're going to call me a jolly fellow.
And they'd be right for that I am
I feel like a bird, bam bam bam
What major thing can I shoot for
I've got life now and plenty more.
No one can know just how it feels
to be so stripped of fun and thrills
How can they know the insanity
that covers one that is not free?
I know...I'll build the tallest tree on earth
and after that I'll purchase me some extra mirth
I'll set my sails to cross the whole round globe
Then fly back home before its time to probe.
I'll paint my town any color I should so choose
I'm free now, whatever have I got to lose?
Please don't look for me, for I won't be found
for I am metro-multi activity-based bound.
