A New Freedom


Lush meadows spread into the horizon
Blue skies entice me to fly
Freedom once I had heard of
Has embraced me in its arms

Imprisoned I was, deep inside my mind
Chained to darkness, enslaved to ignorance
Thank God, for that ray of light
Forever in your debt for this way of life

Along the meadows I tread a new path
Wander I don't, for I know where to go
I look to the sky, let the clouds pass
Happy I am, and will outlive my woes

Fool I was, I saw the light late
It's all a game you play, we call it fate;
