Nina

[Intro: Nina Simone] I tell you what freedom means to me No fear I mean really, no fear [Verse] It's a knot You can feel down your back There to warn you Sooner than could your sight [Pre-Chorus] Kept us tamed in youthful years So not to jump down from a tree Now the heart it tries to keep So not to cry too many tears [Chorus] Makes me wanna Say what you won't Do what you fear And I beg you don't pray for me Don’t blame me if I say What you won’t 'Cause I believe it When Nina told me that, Nina told me that I'm free [Verse] Like the roar Of a lion in the wild There to serve you In the presence of harm [Pre-Chorus] A motive for genocide The colour of their so-called God You won't dare to speak your mind For you might lose what you already don't have [Chorus] Makes me wanna Say what you won't Do what you fear And I beg you don't pray for me Don’t blame me if I say What you won’t 'Cause I believe it When Nina told me that, Nina told me that I'm free [Bridge] It's going and going and going and gone It's going and going and going and gone It's going and going and going and gone It's going and going and going and gone It's going and going and going and gone It's going and going and going and gone It's going and going and going and gone It's going and going and going and gone It's going and going and going and gone It's going and going and going and gone [Chorus] Makes me wanna Say what you won't Do what you fear And I beg you don't pray for me Don’t blame me if I say What you won’t 'Cause I believe it When Nina told me that, Nina told me that I'm free
