I'm Free
Helloween Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a world that cries for more equality
I'm free, as free as one can be
In this world so full of tears and misery
Today
Faster and faster we run into life, no time for emotions
Higher and higher we raise our limits too fast
Colder and colder it gets as we walk down the line
I don't wanna be a part
Of that foolish game
I just try another start
Nothing stays the same
I'm free, as free as one can be
In a world that cries for more equality
I'm free, as free as one can be
In this world so full of tears and misery
Today
Stronger and stronger we march into thy
Don't show no weakness
Don't show no mercy for those who are allied in pain
Stay where you are no complaining at all
Never get restless
Never just step out of line cause it won't be the same
I don't wanna be a part
Of that foolish game
I just try another start
Or else I go insane
I'm free, as free as one can be
In a world that cries for more equality
I'm free, as free as one can be
In this world so full of tears and misery
Today
I'm free, as free as one can be
In a world that cries for more equality
I'm free, as free as one can be
In this world so full of tears and misery
Today

The lyrics to Helloween's song "I'm Free" convey a message of individualism and the desire to break free from the societal norms that dictate our lives. The song begins by declaring the singer's freedom in a world that cries for more equality. The singer acknowledges the misery and tears that fill the world but chooses to focus on their own freedom instead of being a part of the "foolish game" society plays.
The second verse of the song continues with the theme of society's expectations dictating our lives as the singer talks about the pressure to continually push boundaries and limits higher and higher. The singer sees this as an illusion and chooses to not be a part of it. The chorus repeats the refrain of being free in a world that demands equality but is full of tears and misery.
The bridge of the song describes the pressure to conform to societal expectations and to not complain but to march forward without weakness or mercy for those who struggle. The singer declares their desire for another start or else they'll go insane. The song ends with a final chorus repeating the message of being free in a world filled with tears and misery.
Overall, the song seems to be a declaration of freedom from societal expectations and a desire to carve out one's own path in life despite the struggles and hardships that come with it.
Line by Line Meaning
I'm free, as free as one can be
I am completely free and unrestrained
In a world that cries for more equality
Despite the world constantly demanding more equality
In this world so full of tears and misery
Living in a world that is full of sadness and pain
Today
Right now, in the present moment
Faster and faster we run into life, no time for emotions
We are hurrying through life too fast to stop and feel our emotions
Higher and higher we raise our limits too fast
We are pushing ourselves too hard, too quickly
Lost with protectors and will to survive, it's an illusion
We have lost our way and the idea of needing protectors and a will to survive is an illusion
Colder and colder it gets as we walk down the line
As we continue along our path, things become more and more bleak
I don't wanna be a part
I do not want to be involved
Of that foolish game
In that meaningless cycle
I just try another start
I am attempting to start anew
Nothing stays the same
Change is inevitable
Stronger and stronger we march into thy
We are growing stronger as we move forward
Don't show no weakness
We must not show any signs of weakness
Don't show no mercy for those who are allied in pain
We must not show mercy to those who are in pain with us
Stay where you are no complaining at all
We must stay where we are and not complain
Never get restless
We must never become restless
Never just step out of line cause it won't be the same
We must stay in line, because things will not be the same if we step out
Or else I go insane
Otherwise, I will become mentally unstable
Today
Still in the present
I'm free, as free as one can be
Reiterated statement of being completely free
In a world that cries for more equality
Despite the world's plea for more equality
In this world so full of tears and misery
Still living in a world that is full of pain and sadness
Today
Final mention of being in the present moment

Uma faixa bônus melhor do que muitas faixas originais dentro do 7 Sinners
Juan Carlos
É melhor que qualquer faixa do 7 sinners. Ele merecia um single, puta música foda.
Jose Batres
Sucks it’s not included in the US release. Japan always gets the coolest bonus songs!
