Freedom
Justin Bieber Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Big up to my brother
Blessed sons and daughters
We all lookin' for the answers
We in search of living water
Too blind to see the Messiah
Are you weary? Are you tired?
Runnin' on empty, feelin' the fire
Mmm, the Devil is a liar
The story's already written
Children, you are forgiven, yeah
Ain't nothin' you could do for you to change that
And everything you did, He erased that
Yeah, He took it all and threw it in the wasteland

Freedom, don't it feel good? (Mmm)
Freedom, don't it feel good?
Freedom, don't it feel good? (Mmm)
Freedom, don't it feel good? (Bah)

Big up to our Father (big)
If you call pon Him, Him answer (brrt)
All we need ah the begotten son to prosper (yeah, yeah)
The dead resurrected, the Devil tried test it, him lost
Him lose again (mmm)
Head bruise again (mm-hmm-hmm)
Sweat, blood, tears pon the cross
Did you know He paid the cost for you?
Work over North, West, South and East
Easter Sunday, bun and cheese
Good Friday fish and bammy
One table and one family
All of the times when mi cry for The Most High
God said, "Nuh worry about it, my love abundant, trust in mine" (mmm)

Freedom, don't it feel good? (Mmm)
Freedom, don't it feel good?




Freedom, don't it feel good? (Mmm)
Freedom, don't it feel good?
