Rahul sent this to me over ICQ back in 2000. I was already strumming some chords and set them to these words:

Freedom
- words by Rahul Nanavati, music by Shalin Shodhan

Lying chained to the walls
in the darkness of an unknown prison

Buried under volumes of sand
by those who don't give a damn
And they just don't understand

Give me the wings to fly
Set me free
Let me soar into the sky
and be who I am meant to be

They shatter my dreams
and throw me into the night
Head first into a tunnel of darkness
put me down when I want to fight

Give me the wings to fly
Set me free
Let me soar into the sky
and be who I am meant to be
