This is a song I wrote about free, strong women. I would like to dedicate this song to my favorite singer/songwriter, Taylor Swift, who always tells a story in her songs. I would also like to share one of my favorite lines from the movie, ‘The Help’ that I think all people should know and that line is, “You is kind, you is strong, you is important.” I hope you enjoy it!
You walkin’ through the gates
And your holdin’ on tight,
The game begins to start
And nothin’ ever feels right.
Then you start feelin’ the beat
And you movin’ your feet
And ya feel like shoutin’
“Yeah, I’m gonna be free!”
So many twists of life,
You better hold on tight
Because the ride’s just startin’ now
And you can barely see.
Yet the wind’s in your hair
And your laughin’ outright,
And the crowd starts shoutin’,
“Yeah! It’s gonna be a wonderful night!”
And you feel so free.
You start spreadin’ your wings
Around the rides of your life,
You start shoutin’ the names
Of the strong women of life.
So, your like, “Hear me now
Because I am free
You ain’t ever ever ever
Gonna contain me.”
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh,
I am free.
