[Verse 1]
I kept my hands in my pockets
Kept my words on lock
Used to laugh like I meant it
Now I barely talk
Same old room, same old ceiling
Same old heavy air
Then you said, "Go get your own key"
Girl, I needed that
[Pre-Chorus]
I was done with the waiting
Done with the doubt
Heart on a short leash
Cut it loose now
[Chorus]
Free, free, free
I need that free
Let me run, let me breathe
Free, free, free
No chains on me
I was born to leave
[Verse 2]
Now I wake with the sun on my face
Mud on my shoes
Take the long road, take the new road
I got something to lose
Phone on silent, bag packed light
I don't owe the sky
If the world wants a version of me
They can watch me fly
[Pre-Chorus]
I was done with the waiting
Done with the doubt
Heart on a short leash
Cut it loose now
[Chorus]
Free, free, free
I need that free
Let me run, let me breathe
Free, free, free
No chains on me
I was born to leave
[Bridge]
Say my name like a promise
Say it like it's true
I don't need permission
I just need the view
[Chorus]
Free, free, free
I need that free
Let me run, let me breathe
Free, free, free
No chains on me
I was born to leave
