[Intro - bright clean guitar motif, bass enters after two bars, crisp drums, no vocal] [Riff - short catchy three-piece guitar riff, melodic bass counterline, light-crunch guitar, upbeat drums] [Verse 1 - warm conversational male vocal, guitar stays open and light, bass moves melodically] Hey, look around—the world's our stage We didn't come here to live in a cage Kick open the door, let the daylight through Every breath says, "I choose what I do" [Chorus - instantly memorable melody, brighter vocal lift, full three-piece energy without becoming heavy] We were born to be free, yeah, born to be free Turn it up loud, come and sing with me Leave the weight behind, let the old days fade We were born to be free—no need to be afraid [Interlude - brief melodic bass-led break, guitar answers with a simple two-bar hook, no solo] [Verse 2 - relaxed smiling delivery, active bass, restrained guitar, drums slightly more playful] No heavy chains, no need to pretend Just good friends and a riff that won't end Laugh too loud, sing off-key if you please Freedom ain't perfect—it's room to breathe [Chorus - same hook and melody, slightly stronger drums, no added layers or orchestral lift] We were born to be free, yeah, born to be free Turn it up loud, come and sing with me Leave the weight behind, let the old days fade We were born to be free—no need to be afraid [Outro - instruments gradually fall back, intimate close male vocal, half-spoken and gently sung as if talking directly to one person] It's okay to be scared—just take it slow... You don't have to run—just start to walk... Freedom is a step, not a leap...
