  • Artist Info: A free bird leaps on the back of the wind <br />
    and floats downstream till the current ends<br />
    and dips his wing in the orange suns rays and dares to claim the sky.<br />
    But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage <br />
    can seldom see through his bars of rage <br />
    his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.<br />
    The caged bird sings with a fearful trill<br />
    of things unknown but longed for still<br />
    and his tune is heard on the distant hill<br />
    for the caged bird sings of freedom.<br />
    The free bird thinks of another breeze <br />
    and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees<br />
    and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn and he names the sky his own.<br />
    But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams<br />
    his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream<br />
    his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.<br />
    The caged bird sings with a fearful trill <br />
    of things unknown but longed for still<br />
    and his tune is heard on the distant hill<br />
    for the caged bird sings of freedom.<br />
