In Walked Freedom by Mark Manthei Lyrics
In Walked Freedom
There must be a crack in the wall somewhere
I swear I saw bits of sunshine everywhere
I thought I heard someone talking over there
In between the words that seemed to care
About the sounds that were coming from my bed
While someone's playin' the drums upon my head
See the frequency was turned up so high
That it drowned out the beauty left inside
Chorus
Then In Walked Freedom.......In the silence of the night
Then In Walked Freedom...........It nearly blew my mind
Then In Walked Freedom...And it could not lie...Even if it tried
There had to be a prison in me somewhere
That ran contraban through the hands of the prisoner
Leaving the madness standing there
Just waitin to break out everywhere
See I needed the bright lights to build on this
It's the risky business of a stolen kiss
That goes on and on beyond the something missed
Into every jail cell that fails it's promise
Repeat Chorus
There had to be a way to get past all that
But the talkin' the trash kept us taken the rap
Until the nothingness between the cracks
Were the empty words of those who trapped us
Bridge
When Freedom walked in...............I had no idea
There was beauty in the sky.....Or even a reason why
I hardly knew the truth
But now I have the proof
Until Freedom walked in....................I was lost
The revolving door stopped..........No elevator going up
To view this beautiful truth
Now I have proof
Verse D D/C# G/B/ Em A Chorus G D Em A/C# G Bm A/C# G
