I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free - John Legend (约翰·传奇)/The Roots

I wish I knew how it would feel to be free

I wish I could break all the chains holding me

And I wish I could say all the things that I should say

Say 'em loud say 'em clear

For the whole world to hear

I wish I could share all the love

That's in my heart

Remove all the bars that keep us apart

And I wish you could know

What it means to be me

Then you'd see and agree

That every man should be free

I wish I could give I'm longing to give

And I wish I could live

Like I'm longing to live

And I wish I could do all the things I can do

Though I'm way overdue

I'd be starting to move

Well I wish I could be

Like a bird up in the sky

How sweet it would be if I found I could fly

Well I'd soar to the sun

Then I'd look down at the sea

Then I'd sing cause I'd know

Yes I'd sing cause I'd know

Sing cause I know

I know I'm free yeah

Yeah I know I'm free
