I know why the caged bird sings.
He sings for me.
He sings because he is happy -
He sings because he is free -
Free from the bonds of humanity -
Free to live and let live as God intended.
Free to just be
what he is
with no one expecting more than he can give.
His needs are small -
food, shelter, and love -
nothing more.
I know why the caged bird sings.
He sings for me
and I sing because he is free!
