Freedom Child by The Script Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Find a dream, make it real
Speak your heart, do what you feel
Say your peace, free your mind
Seek the truth, go rise and shine
Break the rules, test your faith
Trust your soul, and lead the way
Lose yourself, yeah just go wild
[Chorus]
Don't let them take your freedom, child
Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
Don't show them hate, hate, hate will feed them, child
Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
Just show them love, love, love will free them
Only love, love, love will free them
Only love, love can defeat them
[Verse 2]
Hold your ground, make your name
Love your life, just feel no shame
Earn your stripes, do your bit
Try your luck, just know your shit
Face your fears with a smile
[Chorus]
Don't let them take your freedom, child
Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
Don't show them hate, hate, hate will feed them, child
Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
Just show them love, love, love will free them
Only love, love, love will free them
Only love, love can defeat them
[Post-Chorus]
Kids, kids, they won't stand a chance
If we don't, don't take a stance
Kids, kids, they won't stand a chance
If we don't, don't take a stance
[Bridge]
Put a flower on the top of a gun
Put confetti in an atomic bomb, yeah
It's time to change now, we've seen enough
Instead of war, we're declaring love, yeah
Put a flower on the top of a gun
Put confetti in an atomic bomb, yeah
It's time to change now, we've seen enough
Instead of war, we're declaring love, yeah
[Chorus 2]
Freedom child
Only love, love, love will free them
Only love, love can defeat them
[Post-Chorus]
Kids, kids, they won't stand a chance
If we don't, don't take a stance
Kids, kids, they won't stand a chance
If we don't, don't take a stance
Find a dream, make it real
Speak your heart, do what you feel
Say your peace, free your mind
Seek the truth, go rise and shine
Break the rules, test your faith
Trust your soul, and lead the way
Lose yourself, yeah just go wild
[Chorus]
Don't let them take your freedom, child
Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
Don't show them hate, hate, hate will feed them, child
Don't let them take, take, take your freedom, child
