Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

There is a world outside

So why do I hide

When You tell me I am free?

I?see?the open door

Yeah,?I know there's more

But I've been?too scared to leave


But I'm ready now

I'm letting go

I'm leaving all the prisons I have known

I follow You

'Cause I believe

It's time to start living


Chorus:

Living like I'm free

I'm not gonna let the past keep holding me

No matter what tomorrow brings

I'm never going back again

I'm only looking up ahead

I hear You telling me


It's time to start living like I'm free

Living like I'm free

Living like I'm free, ooh-oh


You called me from this mess

You put my fear to rest

I am not locked up anymore

You are the reason why

I'm coming back to life

All of my chains are on the floor


I follow You

'Cause I believe

It's time to start living


Living like I'm free

I'm not gonna let the past keep holding me

No matter what tomorrow brings

I'm never going back again

I'm only looking up ahead

I hear You telling me


It's time to start living like I'm free

Living like I'm free

Living like I'm free

It's time to start living like I'm free

Living like I'm free 

Living like I'm free


Fear and insecurity

They were never meant for me

I'm enough in Your love

I am free in Your love, oh-ohh

Oh, yeah, yeah

It's time to start living


Living like I'm free

I'm not gonna let the past keep holding me 

No matter what tomorrow brings

I'm never going back again (Never going back)

I'm only looking up ahead

I hear You telling me (Yeah, hey, telling me)


It's time to start living like I'm free

Living like I'm free

Living like I'm free

It's time to start living like I'm free 

Living like I'm free (Living like I'm free)

Living like I'm free
