SCENE ONE TONY:
Recites and is joined by verse by the whole company. I wish I knew how It would feel to be free I wish I could break All the chains holding me I wish I could say All the things I'd like to say Say em loud say em clear For the whole world to hear I wish I could live Like I'm longing to live I wish I could give What I'm longing to give And I wish I could do All the things I'd like to do And I'm way over due To starting anew I wish I knew how It would feel to be free I wish I could break All the chains holding me I wish I could say All the things I'd like to say Say em loud say em clear So you know that I am free I wish I could share All the love that's in my heart Remove every doubt That keeps us apart And I wish you could know What it means to be me Then you'd see and agree Every Blackman should be
