"I Ain't Bound" lyrics

I'm free as a robin I know I been sobbin
I got hell at the heels of my feet
No one to blame, so I'll choose my fate
Lord it looks like rain
I ain't bound by anything

I sing like a swallow
My time it is borrowed
Should have died with the flowers of spring
No weapon used nor the needle and spoon
Could steal my destiny
I ain't bound by anything

I soar like the eagle
From the cave to the steeple
I bight my tongue when I speak
Never disgraced but always ashamed
I killed a part of me
I ain't bound by anything

I'm sick as a dove who lost his only love
From a shot in the late summer heat
I will survive and live and let die
These wings don't carry me
I ain't bound by anything
