Well, my mind is free again

And my soul is on the mend

Won't somebody hear my plea?

There is a storm inside of me

Turn back the pages, there lies my fate

My intuition, I hesitate

The storm it rages, sky burnin' black

Hold back the river, no turnin' back

I got my freak flag flyin' again

I can feel the pressure begin

Can you see I'm misunderstood?

Because you can't stop the flood

Live on the outside, walk throughout the pain

You know I can't hide from where I came

Ain't nobody gonna understand

You're gonna find me in the Promised Land

I got my freak flag flyin' again

I can feel the pressure begin

Can you see I'm misunderstood?

Because you can't stop the flood

I got my freak flag flyin' again

I can feel the pressure begin

Can you see I'm misunderstood?

Because you can't stop the flood

I got my freak flag flyin' again

I can feel the pressure begin

Can you see I'm misunderstood?

Because you can't stop the flood

Can't stop the flood, can't stop the flood

Just can't stop

Hmm, can't stop the flood

Yeah
