Good song. One key is that no one is free, as in totally free. We all follow rules. We all suffer consequences if we break them. Well, some of us get caught and others don't. Then there's position and influence et al, which affects, even determines, how actually governed - how influenced - by our commonly shared framework of rules, we each are.
Like money, there's been a pretty shit distribution of freedom units. It's nowhere near being a healthily, deserving long-living way of doing things.
Not sure why i'm typing this, just am thinking, in the whole sense of the word, no one is free. i'm feeling it's one of the keys to music involving the idea of freedom.
It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
