When I was a child I would play along a creek I remember wanting to be that creek, Wanting to run along it And see where it would end. Free to go wherever I pleased Free to make decisions by myself I could go to the gulf perhaps Or float down an underground river Free to just go wherever the wind would take me But then, My mom called me inside And I realized, I was not free like a river, Not yet anyway.
