Be Free
Zayde Wรธlf Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Late at night we stumble through the city
Acting like we know where to go
Standing there in the shadows looking pretty
Like your eyes have been laced with gold

We are the lost ones
We are the ones that will always roam
All the time we feeling trapped and guilty
Making deals the only way we know

We're coming alive
Coming alive
Yeah, coming alive
Coming alive, yeah

Everybody
Everybody wanna be free
Everybody
Everybody wanna be free
Stand up, when we rise above
Stand up, when we rise above
Everybody, everybody
Everybody wanna be free

I can tell that you running hot blooded
Way you talkin' with that razor tongue
But that's the way that you keep my heart jumpin'
Like the animals we've become

We are the lost ones
We are the ones that will always roam
Like the knife, yeah, we'll keep hunting
Gonna chace it till we touch the sun

We're coming alive
Coming alive
Yeah, coming alive
Coming alive, yeah

Everybody
Everybody wanna be free
Everybody
Everybody wanna be free
Stand up, when we rise above
Stand up, when we rise above
Everybody, everybody
Everybody wanna be free

We've got this feeling in our soul
We've got the reason in our bones
We will never let it go
No, we won't let go

We're coming alive
We're coming alive

Everybody
Everybody wanna be free
Everybody
Everybody wanna be free
Stand up, when we rise above
Stand up, when we rise above
Everybody, everybody
Everybody wanna be free




Everybody, everybody
Everybody wanna be free

The singer is looking for an escape from the mundane life they lead, with a yearning for freedom, as indicated in the chorus. The lyrics, "Like your eyes have been laced with gold," can be interpreted as seeing the world through rose-colored glasses, or the idea that freedom will be a shining beacon that lights their way. The singer describes themselves as the lost ones, always roaming, with hunting being their way of life. By taking risks and making deals, they believe that's the only way to break free from their current situation.


The second half of the lyrics to "Be Free" highlights the animalistic nature of the singer and their lover. The lyrics suggest that both are hot-blooded, and the singer finds the sharp tongued lover exciting. The animalistic theme continues with "we'll keep hunting, gonna chase it till we touch the sun." This line indicates that they may feel that they are on a path of self-discovery and that this drive is an essential part of their nature that will lead them to freedom. The song ends with the idea that they have the feeling of freedom in their soul, and they will never let it go.
