Freedom C.E. by The Invisible Teal Lyrics

Heaven knows that I was just a young boy --
I didn't know what I wanted to be --
But I was every pastor's daughter's secret (Shh!) pride and joy
And I guess that was enough for me
To win the race, an innocent face
Some brand new clothes and a tinier place
Away from Steph and JRC ...
But today, the way I play the game is not the same
I think I'm gonna get some. (Yeah!)
Time to get happy. (Get happy!)

I think there's something you should know --
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me --
There's something else I've got to be
Take back your picture in the frame
And your bisected ball and chain
Just hope you understand
That sometimes the robes do not make the man

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you, and you don't belong to me
Yeah, yeah, freedom!
I won't let you down. (Freedom!)
I won't give you up. (Freedom!)
Just have some faith in the sound --
It's the one good thing that I've got
(You've got to give for what you take. Yeah, yeah, freedom!)
I won't let you down (Freedom!);
Please don't give me up (Freedom!)
'cause I would really, really love to stick around!
(You've got to give for what you take.)
(I won't let you down, no, no!)

Heaven (Really?) ... well (Hmm ... ) ... I know I had some fun!
Just whoever was around and me
And we had every Phoenician slowcore Sufjanabe band on the run --
Haha, I was living in a fantasy (Mr. Fantasy)
I lost the race, got out of the place;
I went back home with a fraudulent face
For the Crowder & Crescendo scene
(Where's the Larry? Where's the Keith?) ...
But today, the way I play the game has got to change
(I've got to change!)
I know I'm gonna get mine, yeah!
Time to get happy, happy, happy, happy!

I think there's something you should know --
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me --
There's something else I've got to be
Take back your picture in the frame
Take back your Dad without a Name
Just hope you understand
That this kind of thorn just crowned me in the end. (Ouch!)

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you, and you don't belong to me
Yeah, yeah, freedom!
I won't let you down. (Freedom!)
I won't give you up. (Freedom!)
Just have some faith in the sound --
It's the one good thing that I've got
(You've got to give for what you take. Yeah, yeah, freedom!)
I won't let you down (Freedom!);
Please don't give me up (Freedom!)
'cause I would really, really love to stick around!
(You've got to give for what you take.)
Take it now!

(Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!
You've got to give for what you take!
Yeah, yeah, freedom! Freedom! Freedom!
You've got to give for what you take!)

Well, it looks like the road to heaven
But feels like the road to hell
When I knew which side of my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Just smile for another picture --
Everyone's got to sell --
But when the horns are flashed, they notice fast (Hail! Hail!)
And some mistakes were meant to last
(That's what you get) for changing your mind ...
But after all this time, just hope you understand:
The faith of a child cannot make a man!

All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you, and you don't belong to me
Yeah, yeah, freedom!
I won't let you down. (Freedom!)
I won't give you up. (Freedom!)
Just have some faith in the sound --
It's the one good thing that I've got
(You've got to give for what you take. Yeah, yeah, freedom!)
I won't let you down (Freedom!);
Please don't give me up (Freedom!)
'cause I would really, really love to stick around!
(You've got to give for what you take.)
May not be what you want from me ...
(Freedom! Freedom!)
It's just the way it's got to be! It's GOT to be!
(Freedom! You've got to give for what you take!)
Lose the halo; find the wings
(Yeah, yeah, freedom! Freedom!)
I've got to live, I've got to live, I've got to LIVE!!!!!!!
(Freedom! You've got to give for what you take!)

Yeah, yeah, freedom!
(I won't let you down, no, no.)
