Freedom

Lyrics

[KELLY] Let's go The highway's calling The sun is shining Let's get in the car and just remember... Let's go [KELLY, spoken] Get in, loser [SAM] Kelly drove on all of our road trips She believed in listening to the highway You start driving And keep driving There's no stopping 'till Kelly says you've arrived [KELLY, spoken] You're not doing it right [SAM, spoken] Doing what? [KELLY, spoken] You're not in it [SAM, spoken] What are you talking about? [KELLY, spoken] You're not in the moment, Sam. Talk about what it felt like [SAM, spoken] What did it feel like? [KELLY] You remember Feeling the wind blowing your hair... You're not even trying [SAM, spoken] I am [KELLY, spoken] Try harder [KELLY] Picking a road and going anywhere Remember the biker bar? [SAM, spoken] Oh, God! [KELLY] We're headed South... And the biker! Or maybe West We don't know much We're making up the rest Tear up the atlas Don't read the road signs Driving for the sake of driving anywhere That's freedom [SAM] Freedom [KELLY, spoken] What bug do you have up your ass? [SAM, spoken] I don't have a bug up my ass! [KELLY, spoken] Samantha Brown, do you see that fork up ahead? [SAM, spoken] Yeah [KELLY, spoken] Well, one way leads to our school and the other leads somewhere else. Which way do you wanna turn, left or right? [SAM, spoken] I don't know. You never take the same route twice, I have no idea where we are [KELLY, spoken] Who cares? If you don't choose, we're gonna hit that house! Left or right? [SAM, spoken] Hold on, let me pull up a map [KELLY, spoken] No, maps are for brain-deads, left or right?! [SAM, spoken] Aah, left! [KELLY, spoken] Very slow, Brown [SAM, spoken] So where are we going? [KELLY] I have no idea Counting the miles as we go past [SAM] The tank is full, the sun is high [KELLY] Knowing that every mile could be our last [SAM] Just watching the day go by [KELLY & SAM] We won't look back We never will [KELLY] We've come too far [SAM] We'll drive 'till we hit Nashville [KELLY] Nashville [KELLY & SAM] Freedom Freedom Freedom [KELLY, spoken] Okay, where do you wanna go now? [SAM, spoken] Make a right! [KELLY, spoken] No... in life, Sam. Think big. What do you want? [SAM, spoken] Uh... I don't know, I wanna get my license? [KELLY, spoken] Bigger [SAM, spoken] I want the deafening sound of driving fast with the windows down [KELLY, spoken] More! [SAM, spoken] I want to break rules and do something unexpected! [KELLY, spoken] Good! I want Arby's [SAM, spoken] I wanna reach the horizon of impossibility [KELLY, spoken] I wanna go skinny dipping in the ocean [SAM] I wanna drive forever! And I'm almost starting to feel it How a day gives way to something deeper [SAM (KELLY)] (Freedom) The cheap rest-stop The town bypassed (Freedom) The last-minute 'get in the car and let's go' (Go) [KELLY] Let's go! Let's go! Pick a road, pick a highway Any road is going my way Let's go Live it up with no complicated philosophies No college, no career No kids, no fancy house, no Let's go! Any road but the road we're on! [KELLY & SAM] No college, no career No screaming kids, no mortgage Driving anywhere [KELLY] Just driving straight into the dawn That's freedom [SAM] There's something buried within here A lesson to keep The impulse The life force The diving in deep I feel it, the chaos I usually flee If I hold on right Here could I learn to just... be Don't talk about it. Live it. Don't feel the loss of it, feel it Kelly driving, me riding shotgun Windows open so loud I can't hear... Just a couple girls out on the highway Trees blurring into nothing and I am nothing and she is nothing With no roadmap And no curfew Just two girls with nowhere we have to be [SAM (KELLY)] (Freedom) Now she's laughing And I start laughing (Freedom) It's so real and so like a memory (Freedom) And the sun is so bright that I'm squinting And it feels like I've found Freedom [KELLY & SAM] Freedom [KELLY] Yeah [SAM] Driving fast, the radio blaring [KELLY] Yeah [SAM] Windows open, singing like we're rock stars [KELLY] Oh yeah [KELLY & SAM] Yeah (x6) Freedom Freedom Freedom Freedom
