Note: A song about Slavery to Freedom (2010)

I'll sail, I'll sail away
Out of the darkness I'll break my chains
I'll break forth on the breath of air
Just to feel the wind in my hair

Away, away I'll go
From the keys to the gulf of Mexico
Mexico won't stop me there
I'll be in the pacific somewhere

O I'll sail I'll sail away
Evermore on my little boat
I'll sail I' sail away
for as long it will float

Mama, Daddy, don't cry for me
I'm free, and that's more than I could ever be
I'll be there in your memories each day
But now I must sail away

I'll sail, I'll sail away
Out of the darkness I'll break my chains
I'll break forth on the breath of air
Just to feel the wind in my hair

And if I ne'er return if I young die
The sea will never run dry
Just put all of my old things away
And build a boat, oh daddy, and sail mama away

Just Sail just sail away
Don't stop and worry about me
They can't chase you down now
God has a wind and its blowing wild

Away, away you'll be
And you'll feel how it feels to truly be free
The wind and waves will take you anywhere
So just hurry and go there's no time to spare

See the wind it wails
In the sails it swells
Just sail, just sail away
