lyrics
Yes, I know, the time will come
when we won't have to pray,
on and on, endlessly
for a better day.
Ease of mind and of soul.
Feel it in your heart, warm not cold.
So, here's what I want you to do
when barely hope is left to you;
how you live your life, you must be true.
Free up your mind, lift up your soul
Leave all the negative behind.
Free up your heart, lift up your life
Free up your mind, yeah
Free up your mind, lift up your soul
Stand up for what you know is right.
Free up your heart, lift up your life
hooooo, yeah
You know what to do. Run for the cure. A better day. A better way.
Oh, my people, here's some light to show you the way.
No doubt about it. I've got your back today.
Well, peace of mind and of soul.
Feel it way down, it's age old.
So, here's what you know you've gotta do
when only music is the cure.
Free your mind and the rest will follow.
Free up your mind, lift up your soul
Leave all the negative behind.
Free up your heart, lift up your life
Oh, free up your mind
You know what to do. Run for the cure.
Free up your mind, lift up your soul
You know what to do. Stand up for what you know is right.
Free up your heart, lift up your life
Oh ho, free up, free up.
You know what to do. Run for the cure.
Free up your mind, lift up your soul
You know what to do. Leave all the negative behind.
Free up your heart, lift up your life
A better day. A better way. A better day. Oh, I - I gotta, gotta, gotta.
haaaaaa!
Free up your mind, lift up your soul
Free up your heart, lift up your life
Free up your mind, yeah!
