[Chorus]
Wanna free my mind, wanna be outside
Wanna be alive, pray I wake up again
Wanna free my mind, wanna be outside
Wanna be alive, pray I wake up again
Wanna free my mind, wanna be outside
Wanna be alive, pray I wake up again
Wanna free my mind, wanna be outside
Wanna be alive, pray I wake up again
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
[Verse]
I know the sunshine isn't promised, so I put it in my pocket
Winter turned me rotten, all these seasons I've forgotten
July, told me a lie
Can't be just crossed again, you was the straw that bent
Told you tonight wasn't the time
Said your goodbyes to me, it was a sight to see
But what did I expect? You said it with your chest
Your eyes wouldn't lie if you want them to
So what did I expect? You said it with your chest
Your eyes wouldn't cry if you want them to, oh
[Chorus]
Wanna free my mind, wanna be outside
Wanna be alive, pray I wake up again
Wanna free my mind, wanna be outside
Wanna be alive, pray I wake up again
Wanna free my mind, wanna be outside
Wanna be alive, pray I wake up again
Wanna free my mind, wanna be outside
Wanna be alive, pray I wake up again, oh
[Bridge]
Home, gotta get back home
Home is where I wanna be with you
I know, Lord knows I know
I'd walk through fire to get to you
[Outro]
Wonderin', wonderin' what you think

You're searchin', searchin' for the wrong thing
Wonderin', wonderin' what you think
Are you runnin', runnin' from the system?
You can't fig-, can't figure the wisdom
You're searchin', searchin' for the wrong thing
Wonderin', wonderin' what you think
Are you runnin', runnin' from the system?
You can't fig-, can't figure the wisdom
You're searchin', searchin' for the wrong thing
Wonderin', wonderin' what you think
Are you runnin', runnin' from the system?
You can't fig-, can't figure the wisdom
You're searchin', searchin' for the wrong thing
Searchin' for the wrong thing
Alive! was written by Bakar & Zach Nahome & Daniel Caesar.
Alive! was produced by Zach Nahome.
‘Alive!’ was the first thing we made for this record. I always try and avoid genre and putting things in a box, but I know there’s a section of my support base that would get a kick out of me calling that my indie-rock song or whatever. I love doing songs that have this duality to them. They feel br...
