Free

 Free to be me

The one who was created so creatively

I'm free to be who I was called to be

To receive all that has been set aside for me

I'm free to carry within the power of life and death

Death always being the reminder

Of the life I'm free to lead

I'm free to speak truthfully and without shame

No hesitation in my game

I am free to like and dislike as I please

Regardless of what anyone else thinks of me

I am free to protect myself and my family

From those who don't hold our best interest at heart

And I'm free to say no when I'm tired

Or just don't feel the part

I am free to live and love and learn

I'm free to be a cool breeze upon your face

Or the slow burn

That cuases you to pick up your pace

I am free to write from the heart 

Write what is real and true

Without a veil of secrecy

Just to please you

I am free to be comfortable

And pretty

And curvy 

And sometimes a little petty

I am free to believe even if you disagree

I am free to find joy

And hope

And truth wherever I look

Because where I look I always see

The reason that I am free

Because He surrounds me with His Spirit

And where the Spirit of the Lord is...there is freedom
