"The Freedom Song" by Jason Mraz

Another new track off of Jason Mraz's new album Love Is A Four Letter Word and he releases his new single as a lyric video "The Freedom Song.

"It's not a departure in the sound of the genre in any way, it's just different tones, 

different textures. Musically, I think people are going to like it.

 It's personal. It's melodic. And it's mellow. 

There's a couple of up-tempo tunes, but mostly the rhythm of the heartbeat kind of takes precedence on this record. Medium-tempo tunes; which I love.

 It feels more like the pace of life. At least, based on my life and what I've been doing."

Talking to Billboard Magazine in Dec. 2011, Mraz indicated that the album was completed keeping with his personal melodic style.

"Freedom Song" 

I picture something, it’s beautiful

It’s full of life, and it is all blue

I see a sunset on the beach, yeah

It makes me feel calm

When I’m calm, I feel good

And when I feel good, I sing

And the joy it brings makes me feel good

And when I feel good, I sing

And the joy it brings

Come on along

I know you really wanna feel our song

We’ve got some light to bring

We’ve got some joy in this thing

(x2)

I see birds fly across the sky

Everyone’s heart flies to get there

Food is frying and people’s smiling

Like there is no other way to feel good

And when I feel good, I sing

And the joy it brings makes me feel good

And when I feel good, I sing

And the joy it brings

Come on along

I know you really wanna feel our song

We’ve got some light to bring

We’ve got some joy in this thing

(x2)

Freedom

Got to give you some of that freedom

It’s freedom

Freedom

You deserve your own freedom

It’s freedom

Freedom

It gets over you, over you, over you, over you

Freedom

Got to get you some of that freedom

It’s a smile you can get when your heart beat.
