Sitting contemplating
These images in my mind
Making sure that everything
Is stylistically right
Overwhelmed, now I know why I'm tired
'cause this place's superficial
Expectations are way too high
So why is everyone always tryin' to be
Everything this world
Tells us we ought to be
You know I'm just gonna
Keep my song simple now
'cause I don't really need
To try and be deep
And who decided
What clothes look good on me?
And would it even matter if I disagreed?
You know I'm just gonna
Keep my style simple now
With something cozy
Maybe even bare feet
'cause I'm free, free to be
Everything he made me to be
I'm free, from the world and me
Depressing awareness
That I couldn't even measure up
No matter how hard I tried
I could never be enough
Tryin' on my own, to fulfill a law
That's already been fulfilled for me
So why we gotta try to hold on tight
To the old ways when
There's been a sacrifice?
The curse has been erased for you and me
So there's no need
For empty religiosity
And why must I be bound
By all the limits set
The human eye decides
Is far as I can get?
You know I'm just gonna
Keep on running, to the unseen
Accepted and beloved
'cause in him I know that I am
'cause I'm free, free to be
Everything he made me to be
I'm free, from the world and me
Beautifully chosen, adopted as his child
I have been redeemed and made complete
In him all the while
Knowing that I'll never be the same
I am a significant, magnificent creation
Presented pure and holy and worthy of
A love that I could never
Comprehend enough
I am made a royal priest
Sitting in the heavenlies
And I can do all things
Through christ who gives me
The strength it takes
To die so I can live
I have been anointed
Established and sealed by him
Oh, can't you feel the peace
It just makes me wanna sing
'cause I'm free, free to be
Everything he made me to be
I'm free, from the world and me
