Free Man
Want to be a free man
Then you got to take a stand
Break from the 9 to 5
Or work for the man
Neither defines freedom
Because it is found within
Learning contentment
Is the place to begin
My skills they limit me
But I don't see
The risk I gotta take
If I want to be free
To be
Authentic
Poetic
Romantic
Even Mathematic
Dull as door knob
Or Crazy Charismatic
Two roads winding
Through this life of mine
A road perceived
A road that is real
The road less travelled
Is rarely trodden by foot
It is a journey of mind and actions
Muddied and marred by lovely life soot
As a man thinks so is he
And you are what you habitually do
So if freedom is my concern
Then the lesson to learn
Is think well and do good
Then freedom won't be about me
It will be about brotherhood
