I wanted to write a simple little song quickly (to clear a minor case of writer's block). I guess I had the Russian invasion of Ukraine floating around in my mind and then it turned into an ode for those addicted to substances. In any event, I wrote:

Freedom Is Waiting

The particulars are:

Thank you for any listens and comments.

Freedom Is Waiting

Rip off the blinders
Break away chains
Your heart will know what is true

Tear down the brick wall
Discard the shame
Freedom is waiting for you

Don't every go back
To that dark place
Find somewhere well-lit and new

Walk in the fresh air
Sun warms your face
Freedom is waiting for you

Remember hard times soon go away
I will be with you, come what may
Remember love is the best we can share
I'll never leave you, I really care

Welcome tomorrow
Let today go
There's nothing left you can do

All is forgiven
This should know
Freedom is waiting for you

Welcome tomorrow
Let today go
There's nothing left you can do

All is forgiven
This should know
Freedom is waiting for yo
