Crowd Yeah! ⸻ VERSE 1 (16 Bars) Talk-sung with rhythmic delivery. I got no chain, I got no rule, Feet on the pavement, heart in fuel. City lights flicker — I’m ridin’ the groove, Ain’t no hand that’s gonna tell me what to do. Walkin’ on a wire, but I ain’t afraid, Breath like thunder, and my promise made. Every step’s a drumbeat, every breath a proof, I break the lock — Freedom on the Move. ⸻ PRE-CHORUS (4–8 Bars) Clap on the two, snap on the four, We push the door — we want more. Call it out, shout it loud, Raise your head, stand proud. ⸻ CHORUS (8–12 Bars) Freedom on the Move! (Freedom on the Move!) Shake it till it breaks — make your body prove! (Make your body prove!) Freedom on the Move! (Freedom on the Move!) Get up, get down — you got nothin’ to lose! ⸻ INTERLUDE (8 Bars) Instrumental Break * Wah guitar solo * Horns answering the guitar phrases * Leave space for spoken improvisation from the lead singer ⸻ VERSE 2 (16 Bars) They told me slow down, you can’t run free, But fire in my pocket says take the key. Moon’s my witness, streets my groove, I write my story — I got nothing to prove. Chains rust, and the old world bends, Truth in my pocket, and a fist of friends. We march like thunder on an open road, Turn our whispers into a livin’ code. ⸻ PRE-CHORUS Clap, shout, stomp the floor, Open every closed door. Voice in the night — louder, prove, This is your time — Freedom on the Move. ⸻ CHORUS Freedom on the Move! (Freedom on the Move!) Shake it till it breaks — make your body prove! Freedom on the Move! (Freedom on the Move!) Get up, get down — you got nothin’ to lose! ⸻ BRIDGE / BREAKDOWN (16 Bars) The groove drops into a heavy half-time feel. Bass and kick drum dominate. Sparse guitar scratches.

A screaming wah guitar note rings out… …slowly fading into cheering, applause, handclaps, and crowd noise.
