The lyrics to Lisa Kelly's 'Now We Are Free' are not in any recognizable language, but are actually a form of gibberish used in the composition of the piece. The beauty of this is that the words are not necessary for the listener to understand what is being conveyed. The overriding emotion is one of freedom, release, and exultation. The haunting vocals of Lisa Kelly rise and fall above a mystic and layered arrangement of strings, percussion, and synth.
The opening lines set the tone for the rest of the piece. The gibberish lyrics here have no real meaning, but seem to evoke an ancient or otherworldly language. The tempo then picks up and the harmonies begin to mount as the music reaches its crescendo. The chorus is repeated several times as the melody and arrangement become more intricate and intense, until the song reaches its triumphant and uplifting conclusion.
