The Green Room

by: Vivian Green

Baby I just gotta be free to be me oh oh oh
Baby I just gotta be free to be me
Don’t wanna turn into another person when you’re around
Maybe somebody else I know I don’t really want
Be hold back my tongue when I really wanna scream
Don’t try to add it, don’t mind if I’m me
I’m free as bird, free as my word
You can say what you wanna, I’mma do what I’m gonna
This is the real me and I just gotta be free as a bird
in the sky
Free as bird, free as my word
You can say what you wanna, I’mma do what I’m gonna
This is the real me and I just gotta be free as a bird
in the sky
Baby I just got to be free to fly away oh oh oh
Baby I just got to be free to fly away
Don’t want nobody keeping my feet on the ground
My spirit’s too alive, I need to move around
So let me go and just let me be
Don’t try to edit, don’t mind if I’m me
I’m free as bird, free as my word
You can say what you wanna, I’mma do what I’m gonna
This is the real me and I just gotta be free as a bird
in the sky
Free as bird, free as my word
You can say what you wanna, I’mma do what I’m gonna
This is the real me and I just gotta be free as a bird
in the sky
Ain’t nothing like being free
Controlling your own destiny
So take off and fly with me
This life is an odyssey
Free like the wind and the water
Leaves in the autumn falling
That’s what I’m calling free
The only way I wanna be
That’s how it is so that’s how I’ll ever be
I’m free as bird, free as my word
You can say what you wanna, I’mma do what I’m gonna
This is the real me and I just gotta be free as a bird
in the sky
Free as bird, free as my word
You can say what you wanna, I’mma do what I’m gonna
This is the real me and I just gotta be free as a bird
in the sky
