I Wanna Be Free
Sol Williams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trapped in this hole
Oh
Complacent, stuck
I tried escaping in my
Mind all the time
Oh
Set me free
Rescue me
This place is so very bleak
And I can never sleep
Oh
I'm pacing, my mind is racing
Please, just let me speak
Oh
I wanna be free
Set me free
I wanna just see
If I can be
Me

Tal vez no entiendas mi comentario, pero es que esto es tan poderoso, es tan bueno, siento que estoy en una película cada vez que la escucho. Tu voz transmite mucho, tienes una voz más que bonita, es mágica, creo que no habría otra manera para expresarlo que diciéndote que naciste para esto, nunca dejes de hacer lo que haces 💗
