  • Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, body
    Yeah, yeah, my mind
    Yeah, yeah, my mind

    I said five in the morning
    I wake up to fight for my earnings
    Fear in my mind is a warning
    Pray to the one you rely in

    I've been wandering all day
    I try to be fine but I can't be
    The noise in my mind wouldn't leave me
    I try to get by but I'm burning

    And behind my mind it runs
    All these thoughts of troubling
    Fighting to give up my pain
    Fighting to be on my lane

    My mind running to the other side
    When it's time to live my life
    Then it tries to take me out
    Tell you what I need right here

    I really need I really need time now
    I really need, I need a free mind now
    I really need, I really need mine now
    I really need, I need to free my mind now

    I really need, I really need time now
    I really need, I need a free mind now
    I really need, I really need mine now, ohh yeah (yeah, yeah)

    This is the peace that you cannot buy
    Send me a love that you cannot mix
    One is the joy that you cannot waste
    The other one price that you cannot fix (cannot fix)

    This is the peace that you cannot buy
    Finding the way, when you cannot see
    Man will desist if he cannot pray
    I need to find release

    But behind my mind it runs
    All these thoughts of troubling
    Fighting to give up my pain
    Fighting to be on my lane

    My mind running to the other side
    When it's time to live my life
    Then it tries to take me out
    Tell you what I need right here

    I really need, I really need mine now
    I really need, I need a free mind now
    I really need, I really need time now
    I really need, I need to free my mind now

    I really need, I really need time now
    I really need, I need a free mind now
    I really need, I really need time now, ohh yeah (yeah, yeah)

    So set me free
    Freer than the open mind
    Farther than the eyes can handle
    Freer than the ocean now
    Yeah, yeah

    So set me free (oh-oh)
    Now I need to find release
    Set me to the open sky
    Now I need to free my mind, yeah
    Yeah

    Boom-boom, boom-boom-boom
    Boom-boom, boom-boom-boom
    Ayy, yeah, mmh
    Yeah, oh no, mmh

    I might be falling deep
    I might be falling deep
    I might be falling deep
    I might be falling deep

    Tell me now what you need
    I've been going to God
    When I'm all in my mind
    I might be falling deep

    Falling deep

    I might be falling
    I might be falling
    I might be falling
    I might be falling, yeah Writer/s: Temilade Openiyi
