I had habit now I'm putting it down
My old (?) is six feet in the ground
And I'm free now, yeah I'm free now
I fought myself like an ultimate foe
My story read like an epic of woe
And I'm free now, yeah I'm free now
I used to say that's just the way that it goes
Oh well, that's just life I suppose
I can't change into somebody else
Anyway I'm reinventing myself
'Cause I'm a free man now (yeah)
'Cause I'm a free man now (that's right)
'Cause I'm a free man now
I'm climbing hard, now I'm reaching the crest
My soul and body are put to the test
And I'm free now, yeah I'm free now
I'm holding out for the moment of truth
I'm drinking deep from the fountain of youth
And I'm free now, yeah I'm free now
I used to say that's just the way that it goes
Oh well, that's just life I suppose
I can't change into somebody else
Anyway I'm reinventing myself
'Cause I'm a free man now (yeah)
