[00:07.71]I wrote this song for my father
[00:11.24]Sometimes I feel he never gave a damn about me
[00:15.79]Though he raised me like he should
[00:20.11]Did he understand me?
[00:22.10]No, no,I don't think so.
[00:25.51]I wrote this song for my mother
[00:27.94]She had to leave me, when I was younger
[00:33.09]She said son, seek this life,and keep an open mind
[00:40.51]But in my mind's eye...
[00:42.69]I am free now
[00:47.14]Free to live without my fears
[00:51.59]I believe now
[00:55.83]There's a reason why I'm here
[00:59.81]It's to try and do good
[01:04.10]It's to try and do better.
[01:08.55]Who will I be for my daughter?
[01:12.19]This little baby, she means the world to me
[01:17.17]Will I relief their mistakes?
[01:21.30]Or do things the right way
[01:24.30]For her sake.
[01:26.34]I am free now
[01:30.90]Free to live without my fears
[01:34.94]I believe now
[01:39.25]There's a reason why I'm here
[01:43.43]Can I be a man?
[01:45.77]One that understands
[01:48.00]How to love more patiently
[01:52.89]I'll be free now
[01:57.07]I'll be free now
[02:01.46]And we dream of the day,when our kids can play
[02:05.86]In the streets with no fear of them being taken away
[02:10.00]Fathers raise their sons with respect and love
[02:14.36]Handle anger and pain with no need for no guns
[02:18.99]If we hope to be free it takes you and me
[02:23.17]To start over here and now
[02:28.30]'Cause this world is,the way it is,
[02:32.34]it's how we raise our kids.
[02:36.67]I wrote this song for our mother,
[02:40.11]I wrote this song for our father
[02:44.23]So hopefully we can come together
[02:48.26]And hopefully make things a little better.
[02:53.89]I am free now
[02:57.91]Free to live without my fears
[03:02.32]I believe now
[03:06.74]There's a reason why I'm here.
[03:10.97]Can I be a man?
[03:13.27]One that understands
[03:15.53]How to love more patiently
[03:20.04]I'll be free now
[03:24.19]I'll be free now
[03:28.46]I'll be free now
[03:33.07]I'll be free now
