[Intro]
Strumming echoes through the night, the call so clear,
Echoes of a distant time, when freedom was near.
Whispers in the wind, stories left unsaid,
A longing for the days, when dreams were free instead.
[Verse 1]
Golden streets and open skies, a playground for the bold,
Lost in the haze of yesterday, a story left untold.
Hands reaching out, grasping for the breeze,
Now it's just a memory, drifting through the trees.
[Pre-Chorus]
Remember when the chains were just a myth,
When the world was ours, we could lift the sky.
Fighting to reclaim what’s gone, what’s missed,
Holding onto the hope that never died.
[Chorus]
Freedom used to be so easy to hold,
Like catching lightning, pure and uncontrolled.
Raise your voice, let the spirits soar,
We’re chasing shadows and the days of before.
[Verse 2]
Skyline painted with the dreams of kings and queens,
Lost in the chase for what freedom means.
Echoes of laughter and promises spun,
Fading like the setting sun, but never gone.
[Pre-Chorus]
Remember when the chains were just a myth,
When the world was ours, we could lift the sky.
Fighting to reclaim what’s gone, what’s missed,
Holding onto the hope that never died.
[Chorus]
Freedom used to be so easy to hold,
Like catching lightning, pure and uncontrolled.
Raise your voice, let the spirits soar,
We’re chasing shadows and the days of before.
[Bridge]
(Instrumental guitar solo – the greatest ever, soaring and fiery, echoing the spirit of rebellion and hope, with rapid bends, sweeping scales, and soulful licks)
[Outro]
Now we stand, hearts ablaze, unbroken and free,
Dreaming of a time when all could see,
That freedom’s just a breath away, a song to be sung,
A legacy of the young and the old one,
Freedom’s eternal, forever sung.
