[Verse 1]
I don't know what you done heard or what you've been told
I just got some things I think you should know
Don't try to run away 'cause there's no place to go
You tried to take me out but you forgot my soul

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I see you over there, why you lookin' like that? (Ooh, hey)
Uh, tryna knock me off, but I'm back on track (Ooh, hey)
You can go and try your best, but I don't think they hear me (Ooh, yeah)
'Cause I'ma do my thing, I don't care what you say mm-mm

[Chorus]
We just wanna be free (Hey!)
We just wanna be free (Hey!)
We just wanna be free, hey alright (Hey!)
We just wanna be free (Hey!)
We just wanna be free (Hey!)
We just wanna be free, hey

[Verse 2]
I don't really care what you think about me (Hey!)
You should be aware there's another side of me, hey
Ready, set, go–give me to the count of three
Got a lot of drive, come and take a ride with me ay
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I see you over there, why you lookin' like that? (Ooh, hey)
Uh, tryna knock me off, but I'm back on track (Ooh, hey)
You can go and try your best, but I don't think they hear me (Ooh, hey)
'Cause I'ma do my thing, I don't care what you say mm-mm

[Chorus]
We just wanna be free (Mm-mm)
We just wanna be free (Mm-mm)
We just wanna be free, yeah
We just wanna be free (Ooh)
We just wanna be free (Ooh)
We just wanna be free (Ooh)
We just wanna be free (Hey!)
We just wanna be free (Hey!)
We just wanna be free, hey alright (Hey!)
We just wanna be free (Hey!)
We just wanna be free (Hey!)
We just wanna be free, hey
