Scorned, ignored, I've been pushed around My life's been hard since I touched the ground No harm can keep hope away from me I'll be free. Oh, I shall be free Fought and lost. I've been knocked down hard Your love only knows how to break my heart Time will relieve me of my misery I'll be free. Oh, I shall be free Chained and drawn by this earthly toil My loneliness kills what's not yet destroyed My day will come, oh you will see I'll be free. Oh, I shall be free Free, one day I shall be free Free, one day I shall be free Free, one day I shall be free And it won't be long
