Nina Simone - I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free

I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
I wish I could break
all the chains holding me
I wish I could say
all the things that I should say
say 'em loud, say 'em clear
for the whole round world to hear

I wish I could share
all the love that's in my heart
remove all the bars that keep us apart
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 all I'm longing to give
I wish I could live like I'm longing to live
I wish that I could do
all the things that I can do
though I'm way overdue
I'd be starting anew

Well I wish I could be like a bird in the sky
how sweet it would be if I found I could fly
Oh I'd soar to the sun
and look down at the sea

and I'd sing cos I'd know that
and I'd sing cos I'd know that
and I'd sing cos I'd know that

I'd know how it feels to be free
I'd know how it feels to be free
I'd know how it feels to be free -

I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
I wish I could break
all the chains holding me
I wish I could say
all the things that I should say
say 'em loud, say 'em clear
for the whole round world to hear

I wish I could share
all the love that's in my heart
remove all the bars that keep us apart
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 all I'm longing to give
I wish I could live like I'm longing to live
I wish that I could do
all the things that I can do
though I'm way overdue
I'd be starting anew

Well I wish I could be like a bird in the sky
how sweet it would be if I found I could fly
Oh I'd soar to the sun
and look down at the sea

and I'd sing cos I'd know that
and I'd sing cos I'd know that
and I'd sing cos I'd know that

I'd know how it feels to be free
I'd know how it feels to be free
I'd know how it feels to be free -
