I wish I knew how it would feel to be free I wish I could break all the chains holding me I wish I could say all the things that I should say Say 'em loud, say 'em clear For the whole wide world to hear
I wish I could share all the love that's in my heart Remove all the bars that keep us apart And I wish you could know how it feels to be me Then you'd see and agree That every man should be free
I wish I could be like a bird in the sky How sweet it would be if I found I could fly Well I'd soar to the sun and look down at the sea And I'd sing 'cos I'd know how it feels to be free
I wish I knew how it would feel to be free I wish I could break all the chains holding me And I wish I could say all the things that I wanna say Say 'em loud, say 'em clear For the whole wide world to hear Say 'em loud, say 'em clear For the whole wide world to hear Say 'em loud, say 'em clear For the whole Wide world to hear
One love One blood One life You got to do what you should One life With each other Sisters Brothers One life But we're not the same We get to carry each other Carry each other
Woah, woah, woah, woah
I wish I knew how it would feel to be free I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
