Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I move my body just like this
I don't know why, but I feel like freedom
(Yeah)
I hear a song that takes me back
And I let go with so much freedom
(Hey)
Free to live (How I wanna live)
I'm gon' get (What I'm gonna get)
'Cause it's my freedom
[Verse 2]
I love how you talk, you're speaking my language
The way that you walk, you can't contain it
Is it the shoes, jumped up, kangaroo
We're overdue for a little more prancing
Now it's your time (It's your right)
You can shine (It's alright)
If you do, I'ma do too
[Verse 3]
When I move my body just like this
I don't know why, but I feel like freedom
(Yeah)
I hear a song that takes me back
And I let go with so much freedom
(Ooh wee!)
Free to live (How I wanna live)
I'm gon' get (What I'm gonna get)
'Cause it's my freedom
[Verse 4]
The reason we get down is to get back up
If someone's around, go on, let them look
You can't stand still, this ain't no drill
More than cheap thrills
(Feels like money, money, money, money, money, money)
Now it's your time (It's your right)
You can shine (It's alright)
If you do, I'ma do too, mmm
[Verse 5]
'Cause when I look up to the stars (Stars)
I know exactly who we are (Oh)
'Cause then I see you shining, you shining, you shining
(Free to be, oh yeah)
(Everybody, come on, everybody, come 'round) (Freedom!)
(Everybody, come on, everybody) (Come on now!)
[Verse 6]
I'm stuck to the dance floor with the, with the whole tape
With the, with the, with the whole tape (Let me see you wobble)
I'm stuck to the dance floor with the, with the whole tape
With the, with the, with the whole tape (Let me see you shake)
Give you just what you ask for, giving you the whole shake
I'ma give you the whole shake (Let me see you wobble)
I'm stuck to the dance floor with the, with the whole tape
With the, with the, with the whole tape (Can you make it break?)
I say yeah (Yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah) (Let me see you wobble)
'Cause you do, I'ma do too
[Verse 7]
When I move my body just like this
I don't know why, but I feel like freedom
(Freedom)
I hear a song that takes me back
And I let go with so much freedom
Free to live (How I wanna live)
I'm gon' get (What I'm gonna get)
'Cause it's my freedom
