I wish I knew how
It would feel to be free
I wish I could break
All the chains holding me
I wish I could say
All the things that I should say
Say 'em loud say 'em clear
For the whole round world to hear

I wish I could share
All the love that's in my heart
Remove all the bars
That keep us apart
I wish you could know
What it means to be me
Then you'd see and agree
That every man should be free

I wish I could give
All I'm longin' to give
I wish I could live
Like I'm longin' to live
I wish I could do
All the things that I can do
Though I'm way overdue
I'd be starting anew.

Well I wish I could be like a bird in the sky
How sweet it would be
If I found I could fly
I'd soar to the sun
And look down at the sea
And I sing 'cause I know
How it feels to be free

In 1974, I had a good friend who was Hendersonville NCโ€™s first black police officer. Bill grew up in Tryon, NC near Ninaโ€™s childhood home. I recall a conversation about a black singer he knew from Tryon, Nina Simone. I wish I could have that conversation again and add about a hour to it. Another rare opportunity for a greater education lost.

I first heard this song about 6 years ago after having my 2nd daughter. I wept. I sung it at the top of my lungs and just bawled my eyes out. Every word pulls at your heart-especially as a woman of color. I didn't know the history behind why this song was written, but I wept. I listened to it over and over again for about 2 months. Who knew that in 1968 when this was written as a tribute to Dr. King's assassination that it would STILL be so relevant today? Let's keep fighting the fight for equality. March. Vote. Protest. Sing. Shout. Cry. Whatever it takes for mankind to reach equality.

Hi Michelle, I'm a pianist too, though not trained at Juilliard, I've memorized the intro to this song. Now we've seen the out of date and shabby results of a stunted, bigoted leader in the Oval Office. Voted for Obama twice, then Hillary, who I told people was a vastly better choice, though I handed out signs and literature for Bernie. Let's pray for the repair of the last four long years of the republican wrecking machine. Do or die
