about

The song of a free man

lyrics

It all began, with daddy all drunk
To make the party go on, he put some ACDC
At the first riff, I felt stronger, and I stomp
And I saw the world in a dark way

When it was my turn, I was ready
I grew up and I knew, freedom isn’t free
Working all the day for a starvation wage
Can’t stand it anymore, riff in the head, gas in the bike

(road rage)

Breaking the line, it means escape of reality
That’s right, make your own way !
Breaking the line, it means keep what you need
And throw all the weight !
Get good girls, good bottom, and rock n’ roll
Oh, and rock n’ roll

At some time, they say, rock’s gonna be dead
Sound lasting centuries, let the talk spread
At some time, they say, rock’s gonna be dead !
More than a style, it’s a spirit, it’s a way to be !
I was sure, It’s an easy life
It’s worth the sacrifice
Now they tell I’m a mutt
Everywhere I stop

Whatever If I die, tomorrow
I’ve seen a lot in a decade, and your life is empty
So glad I lived so much, no jealousy for you.
I have no regret, you can judge me with yours, I don’t mind
