Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes
To Be Free To Be Who We Are
[Spoken Intro]
This song deals with freedom
As it's supposed to be
Just one, just a minute of your time
To listen to one thing that I have to say

[Verse 1]
You can be anything
And everything you wanna be
You can see anything
And everything you wanna see
You can go anywhere
And everywhere you wanna go
You can know anything
And everything you wanna know

[Pre-Chorus]
But it all depends on you, yes it does
Anything you wanna do, 'cause a long time ago
God made us to be (He made us one by one, yeah)
Anything we wanna be (He said)

[Chorus]
To be free
To be who we are (well)
To be free
To be who we are
To be free
To be who we are
It's a blessin' to us all
Sent down from the almighty, yeah, yeah yeah
[Verse 2]
You can do anything
And everything you wanna do
You can prove anything
And everything you wanna prove
You can try anything
And everything you wanna try
You can buy anything
And everything you wanna buy

[Pre-Chorus]
But it all depends on you, yes it does
Anything you feel like you might wanna do
'Cause a long time ago
God made us to be (He made us one by one, yeah)
Anything we wanna be (He said my children)

[Chorus]
To be free
To be who we are (you can do it, do it)
To be free
To be who we are (yes it is)
To be free to be who we are
A blessin' to us all
It was sent down from the almighty, almighty-mighty
(Play it, boy)
Well well... well well well well...


[Pre-Chorus]
But it all depends on you
Anything in your mind
That you feel like you wanna do, it's alright
'Cause God made us to be (He made us one by one, yeah)
Anything we wanna be (He said children walk)

[Chorus]
To be free
To be who we are (yeah)
To be free
To be who we are (he said it, he said it yeah)
To be free
To be who we are
It's a blessin' to us all
Sent down from the almighty, yeah

[Outro]
Yes, it's a blessin', a blessin'
Anything that you feel you might wanna do, yeah
You can do it
You, you can do it
To be free to be who we are
To be free to be who we are
To be free to be who we are
