FREEDOM
Flow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

自由って意味 全て好き勝手
誤解じゃないの? ねぇ Human
自由のため 子供ほったらかして
どこへ行くの? Hey mama
誰も皆 問題を抱えてるよ
Each other
がんじがらめ 不自由なこの心
何を愛すの?
何を憎むの?
心の声を聞かせて
何を信じる?
何を疑う?
光の中で僕らは
So this is freedom?
Long time ago かつて目指したもの
何を見て涙してたかも
大切だったはずのそれぞれが
砂の中に埋まってったろう?
漠然とした自由ほど
不自由なものはないって事
Wanna be freeとか言いながら
自由の中で自由を探してた ...

If you need to back up
If you need to step up
If you need to get down
Wake up! wake up! wake up!
If you need to back up
If you need to step up
If you need to get down
Wake up! wake up! wake up!
If you need to back up
If you need to step up
If you need to get down
Wake up! wake up! wake up!
If you need to back up
If you need to step up
If you need to get down
Wake up! wake up!
Wake up! wake up!

何を愛すの?
何を憎むの?
心の声を聞かせて
何を信じる?
何を疑う?
しがらみの中 僕らは...
But I'm not the only one
You already understand
This is the time to free
your mind and your soul
何が見えるの?
何が聴こえる?




全てを受け入れたなら
So this is freedom?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Flow's song "FREEDOM" reflect on the meaning of freedom and the complexities that come with it. The opening lines question whether freedom allows for individuals to do as they please, or if it is a misunderstanding. The song then addresses the sacrifices made for freedom, such as neglecting one's children in the pursuit of it. The chorus asks what people love and hate, what they believe in and doubt, and urges for their inner voices to be heard.


The second verse reminisces about a time in the past when the pursuit of goals brought tears, but now those precious aspirations seem buried in the sands of time. The lyrics suggest that vague notions of freedom can ironically be the most restrictive, and the desire to be free can lead to searching for more freedom within freedom itself.


The lyrics then repeat the chorus, calling for action and awakening, urging listeners to back up, step up, and get down. It poses the same questions about what is loved, what is hated, what is believed, and what is doubted. The final lines ask what can be seen and heard when everything is accepted, and questions if that is what freedom truly is.

I got my freedom flow on in the forest while camping this morning! Thank you so much, Adrienne for bringing yoga back into my life. ❤

@12manushi

Love to see the 10 year earlier Adriene, with so much bursts of active energy and fun and the popsicle and watermelon haha. I absolutely loved it. So refreshing, so absolutely amazing. Thank you.

@yogawithadriene

Depending on the online video- I often take a minute (or 10) to check in with my body and often that will lead to me rolling around on my mat and yes, stretching my body out before yoga. Yoga is all about the exploration so even if you are in a class with a nice warm up - always make sure you are responding to sensations and not just going through the motions. If you feel like stretching before or after yoga- do it! Even one minute on your own goes a long way and can be very empowering.

@RobertaA7
