Sleeping With Sirens - Free Now Lyrics

I wrote this song for my father
Sometimes I feel
He never gave a damn about me
Though he raised me like he should
Did he understand me? No, no, I don't think so.

I wrote this song for my mother
She had to leave me, when I was younger
She said son, seek this life
And keep an open mind
But in my mind's eye...

...I am free now
Free to live without my fears
I believe now
There's a reason why I'm here
It's to try to do good
It's to try to do better

Who will I be for my daughter?
This little baby, she means the world to me
Will I relive their mistakes?
Or do things the right way?
For her sake!

I am free now
Free to live without my fears
I believe now
There's a reason why I'm here

Can I be a man?
One that understands
How to love more patiently
I am free now
I am free now.

And we dream of the day, when our kids can play
In the streets with no fear of being taken away
Fathers raise their sons with respect and love
Handle anger and pain with no need for no guns
If we hope to be free
It takes you and me
To start over here and now
'Cause this world is the way it is,
It's how we raise our kids.


I wrote this song for my mother,
Wrote this song for our father
So hopefully we can come together
And hopefully make things a little better.

I am free now
Free to live without my fears
I believe now
There's a reason why I'm here.

Can I be a man?
One that understands
How to love more patiently
I am free now
I am free now
I am free now
I am free now.
