I read it in the bible
I told you not to waste my time
Why should I be liable
For every situation, and every crime?

I know it´s a long way home
When you haven´t got a ride
I know it´s a long way home
And you know we´ve been fighting for the longest time

Ain´t no freedom like your own
Ain´t no freedom like to say this is mine
Ain´t no freedom like your own
And you know we´ve been fighting for the longest time

I told it to some people
But they said the fault was mine
I know it´s never easy
I know it´s never easy when you walk in line

I know it´s a long way home

When you haven´t got a ride
I know it´s a long way home
And you know we´ve been fighting for the longest time

Ain´t no freedom like your own
Ain´t no freedom like to say this is mine
Ain´t no freedom like your own
And you know we´ve been fighting for the longest time

Why do we live this way
Wasting our lives?
Why are the things that we say
Seen as a crime?
I have to live my way
This is my life
I get on my knees and pray

Most of the time

Ain´t no freedom like your own
Ain´t no freedom like to say this is mine
Ain´t no freedom like your own
And you know we´ve been fighting for the longest time
