I'm Free

**Not The Same** is the fifth track off of NF's first record, I'm Free, under his new stagename.

## Lyrics

**[Verse 1]**

You in that tough place (yeah!)

You in that life prison

You at that rough stage but pretend your life isn't (quit pretendin'!)

I know a savior who can save you, take you out the chains

My God is major, can't contain it, gotta spread the name

Your life has got you low, (low!) that don´t mean nothing

Let Him run the show (show!) and make you mean something

Wonder why you feeling broken, feeling empty

'Cause if you ain't got the Lord, you've never been free

**[Chorus]**

I don't feel chained no longer

Used to feel so weak, now I feel stronger (ayy)

What I got to do to make you see?

I been through the struggle and the pain, now I'm free

Yeah, now them weight's off my shoulders

Feeling brand new and I thought I done told ya

He got me out the place I was at, yeah

And I promise you, I ain't going back, baby

**[Verse 2]**

Free, now you know you trippin' majorly

Your eye gone off the ball like you playing in the major league

Making bad calls, striking out, livin' dangerously

Tryna steal bases, face it, think it's time to change your team

Basically, He can take your life and rearrange it

Say you want freedom, but you ain't ready for changes

He can flip your life around, somethin' like the Matrix

Used to feel chained up, now you feel amazing

Amen (uh-huh!)

You know that feeling like you're brand new (brand new)

No longer are you living like you can't move (can't move)

He took you out the bondage and he freed you

Instead of yelling: "Chained up!"

Now you yelling: "Freedom!"

**[Chorus]**

I don't feel chained no longer

Used to feel so weak, now I feel stronger (ayy)

What I got to do to make you see?

I been through the struggle and the pain, now I'm free

Yeah, now them weight's off my shoulders

Feeling brand new and I thought I done told ya

He got me out the place I was at, yeah

And I promise you, I ain't going back, baby

**[Verse 3]**

I want You to free me, Father

I'm so sick of the pain that bothers me

To the point I scream and holler

Lookin' for a way to get away, better wait to get away, no option

Gave me the ball, I dropped it

Had your plan in my palms, I mocked it

Told you I would give it all, but I'm not, so you gave me a chance

I blew it, I bombed it

See, I know I don't deserve it

But I don't wanna be this broken person

Living in the dark, no hope incurving

Losing all my heart, hopeless, nervous

Choking, burning, I hate these burdens

They break and torture me and they forcing me into something I know I was never born to be

But now I'm free

**[Chorus]**

I don't feel chained no longer

Used to feel so weak, now I feel stronger (ayy)

What I got to do to make you see?

I been through the struggle and the pain, now I'm free

Yeah, now them weight's off my shoulders

Feeling brand new and I thought I done told ya

He got me out the place I was at, yeah

And I promise you, I ain't going back, baby

I don't feel chained no longer

Used to feel so weak, now I feel stronger (ayy)

What I got to do to make you see?

I been through the struggle and the pain, now I'm free

Yeah, now them weight's off my shoulders

Feeling brand new and I thought I done told ya

He got me out the place I was at, yeah

And I promise you, I ain't going back, baby

**[Outro]**

I ain't going back, baby

I ain't going back, baby
