Freestate
Clark Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can hear your soul crying
Listen to your spirit sighing
I can feel your desperation
Emotional deprivation

Let yourself go
Let yourself go
Let your feelings show

Picking up the conversations
Deep in your imagination
Tune in to the lonely voices
Talking of their only choices

Let yourself go
Let yourself go
Let your spirit grow

Step out of your cage and onto the stage
It's time to start playing your part
Freedom awaits
Open the gates
Open your mind
Freedom's a state

I can taste the tears falling
The bitterness that's inside you calling
Yearning for a liberation
Emotional emancipation

Let yourself go
Let yourself go
Let your senses overflow

Step out of your cage and onto the stage
It's time to start playing your part
Freedom awaits
Open the gates




Open your mind
Freedom's a state

Overall Meaning

Clark’s song Freestate is an inspiring and empowering anthem that tackles themes of emotional liberation and personal freedom. In the first stanza, the lyrics paint a picture of someone who is suffering, both mentally and emotionally. The line “I can hear your soul crying” suggests that the person is struggling with their innermost thoughts and feelings, while “emotional deprivation” suggests a deep sense of loneliness and hopelessness. However, the lyrics encourage the listener to “let yourself go” and “let your feelings show”, suggesting that the first step to healing and finding freedom is to open up and embrace your emotions.


The second stanza takes on a more fantastical tone, with the lyrics urging the listener to tune into “the lonely voices” in their imagination in order to connect with themselves on a deeper level. The line “Talking of their only choices” suggests that the person has felt trapped and unable to make meaningful decisions in their life. However, the next line, “Let your spirit grow”, emphasizes the importance of personal growth and self-discovery in achieving emotional freedom. The chorus encourages the listener to “step out of your cage and onto the stage” and to “open your mind” in order to attain “Freestate”, a state of emotional liberation.
